About Northtown

The Northtown area of Spokane, which includes the Garland District and Corbin Park, is a prime example of the charm that the city has to offer. A mix of historical businesses and locations combined with modern amenities driven by community-oriented people. With the Garland Theater, which was originally built in the 1940’s, at the heart of it all, this area has a ton of thrift shops, antique vendors and plenty of local food options to make any day out an adventure.
