Council Approves Grant $ To Extend Centennial Trail
The Spokane City Council voted last night to use almost $2 million in state grants to buy four acres of land from Greenstone Corp. to extend the Centennial Trail near the Kendall Yards development.
As part of the land deal, Greenstone will do the building, adding almost 3 miles of trail, 12 feet wide and not part of any road. Two other projects are also in the works to fill in gaps in the trail or connect amenities to it.
The Spokesman-Review has the story on all three projects.
