Walk with me...
We think that downtown should be a vibrant hub that is safe, connected and intuitive. It should be a place where you can park anywhere and then have a great time the whole time until it’s time to go.
The Loop is a simple way to connect all the best parts of downtown Yakima and focus our creative talent toward the collective good of our community. The Loop generates foot traffic, supports a safer environment, builds trust, makes creative outlets for artists and entrepreneurs. It’s also really fun!
Let’s enjoy a walk downtown along The Loop together.
