This is a rare opportunity to acquire a professionally improved office building in the heart of Downtown Tacoma.

Originally constructed in 1888, the Alexander Parker Building stands as one of the oldest surviving commercial structures in Downtown Tacoma — and one of its most storied.

Few buildings in Tacoma carry as much history within their walls as 1107–1109 Tacoma Avenue S. Built in 1888 and recognized as the first brick block on Tacoma Avenue, this masonry structure has served as a cornerstone of Downtown commerce for over 135 years — housing dry goods merchants, milliners, taverns, nightclubs, apartments, and law offices across its lifetime. The brick itself has a story: much of it arrived in Tacoma as ballast aboard sailing ships from England, offloaded onto the beach and repurposed by local builders as the city rapidly developed. The current owner — a practicing attorney — moved his law office into the building in 1983 and has served as its steward for over four decades.
