Framework for Reinvestment and Redevelopment
The flood management strategy creates better
protection while also creating a Great Riverfront Park
for the City.
Open Space Priorities from Public Feedback
- Leverage flood management measures to maximize open space
- Keep the riverfront open to the public
- Develop pedestrian and bike trails along greenway corridor connecting downtown to the neighborhoods
- Use the riverfront for parks, high-quality mixed-use development, or public uses
- Implement desired greenway program including an expanded farmer’s market, trails, a dog park, gardens, an amphitheater, wetlands and interpretive flood education.
- Maintain views to the river
