Expo ‘74 World's FairThe 1974 Expo World's Fair revived interest in preserving and beautifying the landscape surrounding the falls of the Spokane River and provided for the construction of the Spokane Opera House and surrounding riverfront walkways. Spokane, the smallest city to ever host a World's Fair, used the event to promote ideas about environmentalism and resource sustainability, and brought national and international attention to Spokane and the Inland Northwest. The Fair's slogan was "Tomorrow's New Environment." |
