The Main building on Spokane Community College campus looks a lot like every other classroom building. You pass by plain walls, under florescent lights, until you reach your class.

Although, halfway through this journey down Main building, something changes.

There is an assortment of candy glass sculptures decorating a window, giving passersby a sneak peek into what looks like an episode of Iron Chef.

Then a hole in the wall turns out to be a hallway leading to the bakery and a restaurant.

Orlando’s Restaurant is run by the SCC Inland Northwest Culinary Academy.

Bet you had no idea. Well, don’t feel bad because faculty and students refer to Orlando’s as ‘one of the best kept secrets.'

The history of Spokane seems to revolve around its central landmark, Riverfront Park. The acreage started as a rail yard, trains shuffling in and out with the clock tower always marking the time.

The landscape transformed into the foundation for Expo ‘74, building amenities that residents still use today. Now it’s time to talk about the next set of changes. It won’t happen today, but down the road, the conversations we have now are what will shape the park’s future.

It’s the same rigorous planning that brought the residents of Spokane the Rotary Fountain entrance and the rebuilt gondola swinging over the waterfalls of the Spokane River.

From an extension of the Sky Ride spanning over the park, to an art walk that could extend to Kendall Yards, the City of Spokane’s park and recreation planning department is returning to their on-going master plan to figure out what to do next.

The last time the city took a look at their Master Plan was in 2000. On the plate during that conversation was a project-based plan to explore building a science center and a new IMAX theatre.

It's a big election year with many seats, local and national, up for grabs. Election announcements are spilling out like Seattle rain, never ending - we're looking at you 3rd Legislative District!

The official candidate filing begins next week on Monday at 9 a.m. Candidates who are serious about running will lay down the cash ranging from $421-1,740 for a chance on November's ballot.

Potential candidates have until Friday at 4 p.m. to lay their claim to this year's political spectrum.

Seats available for re-election this year range from the President of the United States to State Rep. in District 3,4,6,7 and 9 and even congressional.

When a candidate files, they can either do it in-person or online. Going in-person has a sense of fanfare to it so after filing time closes, we'll get a list of who went down there in person.
