Geocache Description:

A cache series highlighting the public art of Tacoma

The Goddess of Commerce is a replica of a statue that was created in 1885 and sat on top of the Tacoma Chamber of Commerce building at 12th and Pacific. In 1950, the building was torn down and the statue was melted. The new Goddess of Commerce statue is holding some of the most iconic Tacoma buildings in her hands and bears symbols depicting Tacoma's industries. Her earrings are cranes, a nod to the importance of the port in Tacoma's history. The replica of the Goddess was created by artist Marilyn Mahoney and was installed at the intersection of Sixth and St. Helens in 2011.

The cache is a bison container and is not meant to be a difficult hide.
