Downtown Core. Life here runs on river energy and marquee culture. Steps from the Spokane Falls, residents wander or bike through the 100-acre Riverfront Park, with its SkyRide, Pavilion, and family-friendly festivals, via the official site at Riverfront Park. In Spokane’s historic heart, architectural icons like the Davenport and revived warehouse blocks sit beside new-build towers, giving you options from polished condos to character-rich lofts. Performing arts and concerts at the First Interstate Center for the Arts, shopping at River Park Square, and chef-driven dining concentrate within an easy stroll.
Families are served by Spokane Public Schools, with respected Lewis and Clark High School just up the hill at Lewis and Clark High School. Learning continues beyond K–12: the University District gathers WSU Health Sciences, Eastern Washington University, and research hubs a short hop away, while the reimagined Central Library anchors downtown with studios, maker spaces, and sweeping Spokane River views at Central Library.
Weekends swing from farmers markets and art walks to hockey nights and riverfront celebrations; weekdays stay smooth with frequent buses through Spokane Transit Authority, protected bike lanes, and quick connections to Kendall Yards and Browne’s Addition. Whether you want high-rise views, a quiet brick courtyard, or a car-light lifestyle, this district offers an engaging urban base with outdoor adventure minutes away.
