Latest Tacoma hill

A major part of the 12th Street hill climb renovation in downtown Tacoma is a public art installation called "Projecting Drop" by Vancouver, B.C. artist Jill Anholt. The City of Tacoma is planning a formal ceremony as early as next month to mark the project's completion. Anholt was in town this week to work on night-time elements of the installation.
