Richland
Richland started out as a small farming community,
but the population boomed from about 1,500 to more than 51,00
residents in 1943 when the government built the country’s
first nuclear reactor on the Hanford Site. The Hanford Site
continues to play a major role in the Tri-Cities economy and is
also a huge partner in the science and technology communities
worldwide. The Hanford Reach is the last free-flowing stretch of
the Columbia River in the United States and was designated as a
National Monument by President Clinton. Currently underway, is the
development of a Hanford Reach National Monument Visitor and
Heritage Center located near Columbia Point Park at the Gateway of
the Hanford Reach.
