By the numbers: Spokane’s decade in review

The 2010s brought groundbreaking change.

Voters in Washington approved same-sex marriage and recreational marijuana legalization. The Supreme Court later brought same-sex marriage to the rest of the country. Marijuana legalization continues its spread state-by-state.

The Teens brought Spokane a revitalized skyline with the Gateway Bridge, a revamped U.S. Pavilion, the development of Kendall Yards and the construction of the Davenport Grand.

This decade brought new schools to Spokane, and greatly expanded medical education.

And there’s much more.

Over the next 10 days, The Spokesman-Review will review the big events and the big changes that occurred in the Inland Northwest. Today, we look at some raw numbers.
