Don’t worry, Spokane has lots of other similar buildings still. A really great example is the Davenport Hotel, about a block away from this bus station.

Not so fun fact about the bus station: it was supposed to be a commerce center as well as a bus station. It’s set up like a fancy mini mall inside. Unfortunately, that never really worked out. Most of the shops are empty now for a variety of reasons, and most people avoid the bus station because it has turned into kind of a de facto homeless shelter. The city is currently working on redesigning their transit system to instead have bus stop platforms throughout downtown and de-emphasize the station as a hub of the transit system.
