Photographed from a ferry – perhaps by me or Lawton – on Feb. 28, 1984. The Columbia Tower is underway – and not yet gone away. The name, that is. The Smith Tower, far right, is flying Ivar’s Salmon Sock. Ivar has a year to live and soon he will sell the tower, carrying a one million dollar check in his pocket – first payment – to show off. It was almost as thrilling as opening his monthly social security check.
