A Closer Look at Spokane Streets
The intersection of North Nevada Street and East Dalton Avenue sits in Spokane’s Nevada-Lidgerwood area, a residential neighborhood located north of the city’s downtown core. North Nevada Street serves as a north–south arterial route, carrying local traffic through several north Spokane neighborhoods.
East Dalton Avenue is a smaller east–west city street that primarily serves nearby homes, schools, and neighborhood traffic. The crossing is situated near Gonzaga Preparatory School, making the area a frequent travel point for students, school buses, and local commuters.
Although the intersection itself does not directly connect to a state highway or interstate ramp, it sits within a network of streets that link drivers to several major routes in Spokane. A short drive west leads to North Division Street, one of the city’s busiest north–south corridors and a primary commercial route through Spokane.
Division Street provides connections to U.S. Route 395 and other major regional roads, facilitating traffic movement between downtown Spokane and the northern suburbs.
Drivers traveling farther south from this area can also reach Interstate 90, the main east–west interstate highway through Spokane and the Inland Northwest. In addition, the broader regional network includes projects such as the North Spokane Corridor, a developing freeway alignment for U.S. Route 395, designed to connect I-90 with northern Spokane County.
Overall, the North Nevada Street and East Dalton Avenue intersection primarily supports neighborhood travel, situated within a larger grid that links north Spokane to the region’s major highways and commuter routes.
