The Rich History of Post Falls
A City's Journey Through Time
Post Falls was founded by Frederick Post, who reached a land agreement with the Coeur d'Alene Tribe in 1871, recorded at what is now called Treaty Rock. He built a lumber mill at the falls of the Spokane River, and the town incorporated in 1891. It grew on logging, farming, and hydroelectric power after a dam was built in the early 1900s. Rapid growth in the 1990s made Post Falls one of Idaho's larger cities.
