Fifty years ago, in 1972, Spokane was on the threshold of creating one of the most remarkable world's fairs anywhere. Expo '74 was notable, in part, because Spokane was the smallest city at that time to host a world's fair. Spokane was also ahead of its time in creating the first world's fair to embrace an environmental theme. Perhaps most important to all who lived here, our Expo resulted in one of the most impressive "residuals" in the history of world's fairs.
