10 Things I Hate About You

This is Stadium High School.The main building was constructed for the Northern Pacific Railroad Company and the Tacoma Land Company. Building began in 1891 with the intention of building a luxury hotel resembling a French château. The Panic of 1893, however, brought construction to an abrupt halt when the Northern Pacific was faced with financial disaster. On October 11, 1898, the building was gutted by a massive fire.The reconstructed building opened on September 10, 1906, as Tacoma High School; the name was changed to Stadium 7 yrs. later.
After the 2005-06 renovation the centennial celebration of Stadium High School was held on September 16, 2006. The celebration was attended by 3299 alumni, setting a Guinness World Record for the largest recorded school reunion.
