Spokane

Bing Crosbys family moved from Tacoma, Washington to Spokane, Washington in 1906 when he was 3 years old. The family rented a home for the first several years prior to building this one from a kit in 1911. It is located just north of the Gonzaga University Campus. The house is 1,350 square feet and has 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. It is now run as a museum which is open everyday but Sunday with free admission.
Founded In 1887 by Father Joseph Cataldo, an Italian born Jesuit, he named the new school after his fellow Jesuit and fellow Italian, St. Aloysius Gonzaga.
Located on the campus of Gonzaga University, the present St. Aloysius church was dedicated October 12, 1911. It has the largest seating capacity among Catholic churches in Spokane, able to accommodate 1,100 worshipers. The church, which replaced an original wooden structure, was designed by the architectural firm of Preusse & Zittle of Spokane. An adapted Romanesque style, its many rounded arches and graceful circular features help to soften construction lines. The church, begun in 1909, took almost exactly two years to build at a cost of $176,125.
