Question about the old Builder's Guild hall in Tacoma

I drove past the old Builder's Guild hall on Pacific Avenue last weekend and saw they finally tore it down. That place used to be packed every Thursday night for the union meetings back in the 90s. Now it's just a flat lot with a sign for some new condos. Does anyone know if the union found a new spot to meet in the city?

They moved the meetings to the Labor Temple on Jefferson about five years back. You gotta call the main union office to get the current schedule because they rotate between different halls now. I had to track down my old rep when they closed the Pacific Avenue spot and it took three phone calls. They usually meet the first Tuesday of the month but sometimes it changes. Check if they have a website, but honestly just calling is faster.

Ugh, why make it so hard to find?

My local union hall moved to a shared space last year and the phone tree was a nightmare. I finally got through to a human after pressing zero three times in a row. They texted me a link to a private calendar that never shows up on a web search. It's like they want to keep it a secret unless you're already in the loop.
