The Corps of Volunteers for Northwest Discovery (Lewis & Clark Expedition)
passed through the Tri-Cities area in October of 1805 and again on their return
trip in April, 1806. It was at the confluence of the Snake and Columbia Rivers
that the Expedition knew, for the first time since entering uncharted territory,
exactly where they were. Today, the three rivers of the Snake, Columbia and
Yakima, and the three cities of Pasco, Kennewick and Richland are intrinsically
linked, forming a vibrant urban and recreational hub at the center of
Washington's Columbia Plateau.
Richland started as a small farming community, but the population exploded from
less than 2,000 to more than 51,000 residents in 1943 when the government built
the country's first nuclear reactor on the Hanford Site. Once a secret city
where atomic bomb workers quietly did research, Hanford still plays a major role
in the Tri-Cities economy and is a huge part of the science and technology
communities worldwide. The Hanford Reach, just north of town, is the last
free-flowing stretch of the Columbia River in the United States and was
designated a National Monument by President Clinton.
To the south, Kennewick is the largest of the Tri-Cities, sharing a border with
Richland and an architecturally magnificent cable bridge, which is lighted at
night, with Pasco. The city is known as southeast Washington's retail center and
its Columbia Park is the scene for the July Columbia Cup Unlimited Hydroplane
Races.
East of Richland, Pasco has strong agricultural roots and a diverse population
with about half Hispanic residents. Their open air Farmers' Market is one of the
largest in the state. The arrival of the Northern Pacific Railroad was
instrumental in bringing a rush of settlers to Pasco so it is fitting that the
town hosts one of the best railroad museums. Pasco is also home to the first
commercial airport west of the Mississippi.
Together, the three distinct cities and outlying areas offer a multitude of
recreational, cultural and historical activities that include premier,
year-round golf courses, award winning wineries, museums, first-class shopping
and abundant water recreation.
