This was so fun! We went during Summer Story Time and got to meet giant centipedes from the Point Defiance Zoo. My daughter loved that and learning more about life in the 1800s. Great fun!

Old Town owes its name to the fact that it was the location of the original settlement called Tacoma. In 1865, Job Carr built a cabin near the shore in anticipation of future land speculation due to the construction of the Transcontinental Railroad. (The original cabin location is marked by a plaque at the base of Carr Street. Job Carr Cabin Museumis a replica of the original, and is situated in Old Town Park. Old Town was sustained in its early days by fishing and lumber mills.

Where the old meets the new. This replica cabin in Old Town Tacoma is a great place to check out before hitting Ruston. It gives an appreciation for all the hard work and courage that went in to forming this beautiful city. The park is great for kids and the concerts in the park are always a good time-best of all, its all free.
