Tacoma Tidbits
Tacoma, initially called Takhoma or Tahoma, was named after the nearby Mount Rainier. It is locally known as “City of Destiny” as the area was chosen to be the western end of the Northern Pacific Railroad.
The port city of Tacoma is the county seat of Pierce County, Washington. Located on the banks of Puget Sound, Tacoma is the 3rd biggest city in Washington. It is just 32 miles away from Seattle, and 31 miles away from Olympia. As the city is located in a remarkably beautiful setting, Tacoma is elevated on a plateau and is mounted with green hills. To its west side, you will find the entirety of Puget Sound. The Olympic Mountains is on its northwest. Dominating its southeast, you will see the snowcapped Mount Rainier.
The city’s port operates large public marine terminals with berthing capacity for several ships. This gives way for several ships to transport back and forth to the city. Incoming ships and outbound vessels bring logs, lumber, copper, wheat, lumber, plywood, aluminum, and chemical products from eastern Washington. As the city continues to progress and produce lumber, furniture, paper, it has earned the title "Forest Products Capital of America." Because Tacoma a near Ruston, a company town that processes refined copper, Tacoma became recognized as a major chemical-processing center of the Pacific Northwest.
As for the city's parks and recreation services, Tacoma's Metro Parks manages more than 50 parks and open spaces. One of the biggest city parks in the U.S. is found in Tacoma. Point Defiance Park, a 700-acre property, is vibrant, is a known public spot to socialize with friends, enjoy the scenery, dine at different food kiosks, and even learn about Tacoma's history.
