Peoples Park

These pictures are of parts of Peoples Park in Spokane at the confluence of Latah Creek and the Spokane River. The park is about a mile to the west of downtown Spokane. A railroad high bridge used to pass over parts of the park area. And, at one time the area was populated with many houses. The park was puchased just prior to Expo '74. Use of the land is restricted to a natural use. At one time some in the city wanted to build a golf course in the park. That effort came to an end when the politicians were reminded of the restrictive covenants.
