Tacoma is the kind of place where people are constantly asking, “What kind of city are we becoming?” Today with local Tacoma author, Metro Parks Commissioner, and business owner Erik Hanberg we’re talking about who we are as a city and what our unique strengths are as a city.
“You can really make a splash or make a difference much faster than you can in Seattle,” says Erik. “People come here and whatever they wanted to do they can probably do here and get an audience much faster. Tacoma is big enough to make a difference but small enough to matter.“
