The "Hoyts" chimney is on the right if exiting Interstate 90 west from Spokane onto US Route 2. Technically just barely outside city limits, it is from the Hoyt Brothers Floral Company, founded in 1900 and with many indoor acres of flowers that elevated Spokane to prominence in the national ranks of flower cities (this was a thing, Spokane was 4th). None of this explains why they needed a chimney, or why it's the one piece left when everything else was removed. Buildings of Spokane Along the Spokane River |
