In 2006, the city received the AWC Municipal Achiever Gold Award in recognition of the Downtown Pullman Riverwalk project, as one which significantly improved the quality of life in our community. 

As envisioned, the pathway and bridges increase the flow of non-motorized traffic into the downtown area and the Pine Street Plaza terminus provides a place where people are attracted, where they meet, mingle and connect.

The collaborative project stimulated innovative design changes to offset skyrocketing costs of building materials and generated more than $400,000 in private donations.
