Breslin (Spokane, Washington)
Breslin (Spokane, Washington)

The Breslin is a historic six-story building in the Cliff/Cannon neighborhood of Spokane, Washington. It was designed by architect Albert Held in the Classical Revival style, and built in 1910 by W.H. Stanley with "Tenino sandstone, press red brick and cream-colored terra cotta" at a cost of $100,000.The six-story, flat-roofed building is L-shaped, with wings along Eighth Avenue and Bernard Street. The two wings surround a courtyard in the rear of the building. This design gives each apartment a view out either onto Eighth Avenue, Bernard Street or the courtyard. There is also a daylight basement allowed for by the sloping hill along Bernard. The exterior is composed of red brick with white terra cotta ornamentation.Aside from its age alone, the Breslin is a historically significant building due to the community it was built to house. Spokane's population boomed in late 19th and early 20th centuries, and the city faced a housing shortage. For poor and working class people, the shortage was alleviated by the presence of hotels, boarding houses and flats for rent. However, there was little available housing stock for middle class people who did not own a home. Prior to 1900, the city listings showed no "apartment homes" in Spokane. Between 1900 and 1907 the city added over 40,000 people, and the city turned to the construction of apartment homes to help ease the housing shortage. Unlike other early apartment homes, which appeared as if they were large single-family homes or luxury clubs and hotels, the Breslin's design was forthright about its purpose. The Breslin, along with other buildings designed by Held, were among the very first apartment homes built in Spokane specifically for middle and upper-middle class tenants.It has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since February 12, 1987. The Breslin, along with the Amman, Knickerbocker and San Marco buildings, all designed by Held, were listed on the NRHP together as part of a thematic group nomination. All four are considered significant examples of early 20th century apartment construction.The Breslin was sold for $6.5 million in 2021. At the time, the Breslin was home to 46 units ranging from studio apartments to one and two-bedroom units. In June of 2022, the new owners filed a permit for renovations that would include the addition of eight studio apartment units to the basement and first story of the building.

Episcopal Diocese of Spokane
Episcopal Diocese of Spokane

The Episcopal Diocese of Spokane is a diocese of the Episcopal Church in eastern Washington and northern Idaho, United States. Its office and cathedral seat are in Spokane, Washington. The current bishop is Gretchen Rehberg, the first woman to lead the Diocese. The Diocese of Spokane started as a missionary district in the mid-1860s. One of the earliest missionary priests, Lemuel H. Wells, established twenty-three missions in the late 19th century and became the first Bishop of Spokane in 1892. The early part of the 20th century saw the growth of Christian education programs. This included the establishment of a summer camp for youth on Lake Coeur d'Alene in northern Idaho. Named after Bishop Edward M. Cross, Camp Cross was one of the first camps in the area; it started out as a summer school in 1923 on Lake Chelan before its current property on Lake Coeur d'Alene was donated by Bishop Page. Camp Cross has become a camp and retreat center serving the needs of young and old alike. By the mid 20th century, the Cathedral of St. John the Evangelist in Spokane was begun and completed. A striking example of American neo-gothic architecture, the Cathedral dominates the southern skyline of Spokane as it sits high upon a hill overlooking downtown. The late 20th century saw the establishment of a diocesan housing corporation to bring more housing for the elderly throughout the diocese, as well as the expansion and strengthening of local ministries. The territory of the Diocese of Spokane has thirty-eight congregations and encompasses all of Washington east of the Cascades and the northern Idaho panhandle. Western Washington is within the Diocese of Olympia, and southern Idaho is in the Diocese of Idaho, seated at St. Michael's in Boise.

Spokane Intermodal Center
Spokane Intermodal Center

The Spokane Intermodal Center is an intermodal transport facility located in Spokane, Washington, United States. It serves as a service stop for the Amtrak Empire Builder, as well as the Greyhound, Trailways, and Jefferson Lines station for Spokane. The Empire Builder provides service daily between Chicago, Illinois and Spokane before continuing on to Seattle, Washington or Portland, Oregon.The station was built in 1891 for the Northern Pacific Railway. It was remodeled in 1994 to allow buses to share the station, creating an intermodal facility. Since 1981, when the westbound Empire Builder arrives in the middle of the night, the first six Superliner cars (five passenger cars, a diner and a baggage car) go to King Street Station in Seattle, while a single locomotive from Spokane takes the last four cars (the Sightseer Lounge, two coaches and a sleeper) to Portland Union Station. The eastbound trains join in Spokane in the middle of the night and run combined to Chicago Union Station. (The next eastbound stop is in Sandpoint, Idaho and the next westbound stops are in Ephrata, Washington for the Seattle section and Pasco, Washington for the Portland section.) In pre-Amtrak days, the Empire Builder split into Seattle and Portland sections at Spokane for most of the 1940s and 1950s.The station located just north of Interstate 90 and is about 0.5 miles (0.80 km) southwest of the Spokane Center of the University of Washington and 1 mile (1.6 km) southwest of the campus of Gonzaga University. The station, parking lot, and passenger platform are owned by the City of Spokane. The tracks are owned by BNSF Railway.
