Thoughts Re: CdA Neighborhoods?

And now a word from Joe Butler of the SR marketing department: “Hi Huckleberries readers! We welcome any assistance from you for a project we’re beginning to plan next year that will offer a closer look at the flavor of some of the more interesting neighborhoods throughout Spokane and Kootenai County. Before we start making our list, we need help defining what makes a neighborhood: is it just homes? Do you need some kind of retail component, an established community gathering place, a neighborhood association, advocates/individuals pushing the positive and reducing the negative? Stuff for kids? Is there potential for future growth? Using these factors, what are some suggestions of interesting Kootenai County neighborhoods?  How does an older established neighborhood like Fort Grounds differ from a big newer development like Coeur d’Alene Place? Does East Sherman qualify as a unique neighborhood? (It has homes and history, and nothing but potential). Thanks!”
