What was lost, what was saved

The briefing

A Spokesman-Review survey catalogs the businesses, churches, schools and care facilities destroyed, damaged or spared by the wind-driven Old Trails fire in the Spokane Complex. Riverside Real Life church was reduced to rubble and parts of the 101-year-old Spokane Rifle Club burned, while Avista Senior Living was spared after a plane dropped retardant on its roof. At Lilac Learning Center, neighbors with tractors and mowers dug a fire break that kept the flames just beyond the school's property line.
