Redband Rising in Redband Park
We're pleased to announce installation of Redband Rising at Redband Park. Click here to see pictures of the installation.
The Spokane River Forum partnered with the City of Spokane Parks and Recreation to create Redband Plaza with the Redband Rising sculpture as the centerpiece. The sculpture, park and plaza area is a tribute to redband trout, Spokane River's native fish.
This builds upon efforts to reclaim and revitalize Redband Park, previously called Glover Field. Last spring, the Forum partnered with the WA Department of Commerce and city to build a $250,000 non-motorized boat launch that was an instant success.
Thank you to TC Energy for providing about two-thirds of the funding needed for the $115,000 Redband Plaza, which included fully funding the sculpture. From their offices overlooking the river in downtown Spokane, TC Energy manages over 1,300 miles of natural gas pipeline that goes from the Canadian border, down the Idaho Panhandle, through Spokane Valley, then south to Oregon, northern California and Nevada.
