U did FishPo? That is so cool, awesome

I was a sophomore that got called up from the JV for the playoffs. Legend has it that Sick’s was razed a few weeks after we were there (1977 A.D.), but idk for sure…

It’s true FishPo… the company I worked for [CX corporation] bought the location and commenced construction to create a manufacturing location to make photofinishing equipment [computerized solutions to automate the materials handling functions of photofinishing] as well as to open the largest photofinishing plant west of the Mississippi.

This was quite the place, we had 250 girls in the 18-28 range working there, many of which were absolute knockout beauties… and another 200 engineers and brainiacs in the systems division in this giant building which opened in 1979 as I recall. Haven’t seen the building in decades so do not know the present state of affairs… i hear that its a hardware location, but it was two to 3 times the size of the old white front store so its undoubtedly housing a variety of businesses.

It is a Lowes (Hi Damone!). They have (or had) an area out front marking where home plate was, and a display inside the exit (IIRC) about the Rainiers and Pilots…about 15 yrs ago, I dropped about a 100 grand in there for our “Gentrification Remodel”…CSB, and good chit…

@Fishpo31 You must live in Madrona, Leashi or the area above Seward Park to pick that location… good locations all. I was a Madison Park / Washington Park guy for a lot of years and loved those areas back in the day…
