SPOKANE, Wash. — It’s a place every kid dreams about. A playground, or multiple playgrounds, all ready for them to enjoy.
That’s what the North Bank will have, including the new Ice Age Floods playground. It will all open up on Friday for families.
Josie Connolly, 10, enjoyed the park when she visited Thursday as a sneak peek.
“I was like, I thought it was going to be really cool, but now that I’m actually here it’s actually
really cool,” Josie said.
The North Bank is nearly 10 years in the making. Garrett Jones, the director of parks and recreation with the City of Spokane, has been with the city since then, at least, to see this idea come about. In 2012, there was a master plan that was made up to help fix up Riverfront Park.
