The Ruston-Point Defiance Business District organized in
2006 and is the only local district that includes two different municipalities
with Ruston and Tacoma working cooperatively to support local businesses on
both sides of the street. Recent District projects include new historical plaques
on several businesses, a new web
site, two grand murals in 2012 and the Ruston Family Fair. The District
just won a grant for new sculpture benches to be installed in the District
later this year.
Located between Point Defiance Park and the new Point Ruston
development, the area offers a great mix of shops and strong local support. New
businesses are slated to open soon and additional commercial space is
available. For more details please visit www.ExploreNorthPearl.com.
