About Falls Penthouse at Riverside Place

Falls Penthouse at Riverside Place is a top-floor event room overlooking Spokane Falls. Candlelight concerts are among the programs held in this historic downtown building at 1110 W. Riverside Avenue. The room combines exposed timber trusses, a dark waxed floor and a north-facing balcony. Riverside Place contains several other halls, so the penthouse name is an important part of your booking rather than a description of every event at the property.

Plan Your Visit to Falls Penthouse at Riverside Place

Where is the penthouse, and which entrance should I use?

Use 1110 W. Riverside Avenue, Spokane, WA 99201 for the building. Follow the organizer’s instructions for the event entrance and route to the penthouse. Do not assume that a room shown in another Riverside Place photograph is the space hosting your concert.

If your confirmation names only Riverside Place, ask which room is being used. Allow time to locate that room after entering the building, particularly when meeting friends who may have arrived separately.

What is the Falls Penthouse like?

The venue describes an exposed timber truss ceiling, jet-black waxed flooring and five double doors leading to a north-side balcony overlooking the falls. The balcony extends along the building. Its availability during your event should be confirmed with the organizer.

Riverside Place advertises private-event capacity ranges, but those are not a seating chart for a Candlelight performance. Use the concert’s own seating zones and arrival instructions. Photographs showing banquet tables illustrate a different setup from rows arranged for a concert.

What is the history of Riverside Place?

The property occupies Spokane’s former Masonic Temple, an example of Neo-Classical Revival architecture in the Riverside Avenue historic district. The building was completed in 1905 and expanded in 1925, with architects John K. Dow and Loren L. Rand involved in its development.

Its Riverside Avenue facade features a two-story colonnade with Corinthian columns and tall windows. The interior contains several historic gathering spaces, reflecting the building’s earlier role as a fraternal and social center.

Is the penthouse the same as the auditorium?

No. Riverside Place also identifies the Commandery Room, Ballroom and Auditorium as separate spaces. Their stages, balconies and floor plans should not be used to describe the penthouse.

This distinction matters when comparing photographs or arranging a group visit. Keep the room name on your confirmation available, and ask staff before following signs for another function in the building.

What should I arrange before the visit?

Contact Riverside Place at 509-747-1200 or [email protected] about the route to the penthouse, elevator access, restrooms and any mobility equipment your party uses. An upper-floor location alone does not establish which route will be available to guests.

Ask the event organizer for its parking and drop-off instructions. Choose a legal space under the posted rules, and confirm a suitable drop-off point if someone needs a shorter walk.

What should I check for a concert?

Read the event’s door time, late-entry terms, age guidance and seating-zone description before leaving. If admission is assigned by zone rather than individual seat, ask how places within the zone are allocated.

Confirm whether refreshments, bags and balcony access are permitted for that production. Riverside Place also hosts weddings and private functions, so services offered for those bookings should not be assumed to be included with a concert ticket.
