From railroad town to trendy historic neighborhood
Hillyard has a long, complex history that is deeply intertwined with Spokane’s origins as a railroad town and transport hub. Today, this neighborhood is experiencing a period of revitalization and cultural resurgence, blending its historic architecture with contemporary shops and restaurants. “The neighborhood has really changed over the last few years. It used to be known as a rougher part of town, but now lots of people are looking to move to the neighborhood,” says Mike Bass, managing broker of Century 21 Beutler & Associates and lifelong Spokane resident. “There are a ton of nice historic houses, and there are some great locally-owned shops and restaurants opening up in the neighborhood, especially along Market.”
The Hillyard Heritage museum features historic train cars from Union Pacific.
