On May 1, 2006, Pullman joyfully celebrated the completion
of the Downtown Riverwalk and the Pine Street Square
with a ribbon-cutting and dedication ceremony.

Provost Bates, Mayor Johnson
and Loretta Anawalt cut the ribbon to the trail. |
|
Led by traditional Scottish piping, the celebrants began
a tour of the new bridge and trail. |
|
The cool, gray weather did not
dampen people's enjoyment of the occasion. |
|
The crowd stretched across the
bridge and filled Pine Street Plaza. |
|
|
Not too surprisingly, young folks
were attracted to the waterfall. |
|
Curious pets also checked out
the new features. |
