POV: BACK TO 1983 — The '80s Nostalgia Drive // Retro Synthwave • Chillwave • Warm Memory Mix.
(Captured by a WSDOT photologging vehicle in 1983, this footage offers a nostalgic look at State Route 99 (Pacific Highway South), showcasing a bustling, mid-century landscape of neon signs, local drive-ins, and open road traversing Federal Way, Kent, Des Moines, Sea-Tac, and Tukwila.

While the 1983 scene featured low-density, family-owned roadside businesses, these areas have transformed into modern commercial zones, defined by high-density developments, beautified corridors, and the elevated Link Light Rail.
