1974 Map of Spokane NW

USGS Topo · Published 1986

About this map

The Spokane River carves a deep valley through this mid-1970s landscape, separating the residential growth of West Spokane and Country Homes from the open expanses of Five Mile Prairie. Educational institutions are prominent, with Gonzaga University situated near the city center and Whitworth College to the north, while Fort Wright College occupies a site overlooking a bend in the river. This edition, featuring 1982 revisions in purple, documents the intensification of the urban grid and the expansion of neighborhood shopping centers and hospitals. Landmarks such as Albi Stadium, the Coliseum, and the Main Post Office anchor the civic core, while numerous religious and burial sites including Holy Cross Cemetery and Riverside Memorial Park mark the community's established history. The presence of the Burlington Northern rail lines and the varied industrial sites near Havermale Island highlight the city's enduring role as a regional transport and service hub.
