This photograph from May of 1928 shows the buildings on the east side of St. Helens Avenue from 7th Street looking south. Second in from the corner is the building that was shared by the News Tribune and the Tacoma Daily Ledger from 1918 to 1937. Built in 1910 by Darmer & Cutting for the News Tribune, the Ledger moved into the building when it was bought out by the Tribune in 1918. Both papers published independently from this building until the Daily Ledger went out of business in 1937. The News Tribune kept the name of the Ledger alive in the masthead of its Sunday paper until August of 1979, The Tacoma News Tribune and Sunday Ledger.

$Old St. Ann’s Orphan’s Home building. Queen Anne style Victorian house with two round towers, porte cochere and full covered porch, located in a grove of trees. The home was built in the 1880’s and was formerly part of the estate of Joseph S. Kemp. Purchased by the Sisters of St. Francis and remodeled, it opened as an orphanage in 1939. In 1971, its fixtures and Victorian furniture were sold and the home was razed to make way for modern structures. Photo and description courtesy of Tacoma Public Library. 64\21844.jpg$
