- I have re-edited this video. I was able to fix issues with the aspect ratio (should look less stretched/blurry). Video also shows additional stretches of SR-99.

Back in 1983, The Washington State Department of Transportation drove down SR-99/Pacific Highway South and recorded video to document the highway. This was part of a project that photographed/videotaped the states highways every couple of years. This video now resides at The Washington State Archives who were kind enough to share it.

I want to go back in Time
reminds me of being a kid 13 riding in my parents '77 Accord down 99. What a window into past!
Thank you for the upload! If you have more Federal Way videos that would be fantastic to see as well.
I remember all of this like it was yesterday ….. moved to FW/Kent in 1983. This is like time traveling ❤
This is awesome!
Thank you, love bug , for the video.
21:52 Only $1.07 a gallon for gas! Those were the days!!
Yes I just bought Breakfast in Kent this morning, I grew up there.
That 928 at 23:01..
27:09 federal way (where I live) looks different!
Am I seeing highway signs with the silhouette of George Washington? Are they still there?
Yes
Are you planning on uploading more videos?
Hopefully in the next month or two.
I bet some of these vids show Gary Ridgeway on the prowl...
Damn I was thinking the exact same thing lol
I was thinking the same thing. I went to the elementary school right by Kenworth (where he worked) on 204th street.
At 32:39 you can see to the right of the road, the street sign for Chuck E. Cheese's Pizza Time Theater.
Can someone know the city of this location?
That would be Federal Way.
Thanks for the answer, but I would like to know if you know what shopping center or plaza it was in, or if the building is still there? It's just out of curiosity
It looks like it is at 32065 Pacific Hwy S, Federal Way, WA which is now a Black Bear Diner.
