A Pierce County Transit bus heads 
		northbound along Commerce St. in this view looking across S. 9th St.  Staircases 
		mark the back of the Pantages Theater, one of the buildings that gives 
		this area its name.  
		
		The southbound streetcar has just cleared the switch that takes it onto 
		its own set of rails.
		
		A warning sign is still lit advising motorists not to turn across the 
		tracks into a driveway.  And a Pierce Transit bus waits for the 
		signals to change.
