Plaza is an unincorporated community in Spokane County, Washington, United States. Plaza is situated in a valley formed by Spangle Creek, located approximately 7 miles (11 km) north of Rosalia. U.S. Route 195, a major north–south highway in the Palouse region, ran through the settlement until it was relocated to a bypass in 1974.[2] The highway now passes a couple hundred feet west of the settlement. There are no services in Plaza, and the community itself is only a few square blocks in size, but the grain elevators in town make it a landmark for drivers on the highway.
