Quoted from the parish web site:
"The history and growth of Visitation parish closely parallels that of what today is called South Tacoma. The most significant event for both came in 1891, when the Northern Pacific Railroad located its machine and car shops in the small farming community then called Edison. Growth was so great in the ensuing years that by 1895 Edison became part of the rapidly expanding city of Tacoma."
Visitation Parish consists of a church, rectory and school, located at the same site. At one time, there was also a convent.
