description

Developing a waterfront trail would enhance access to recreational opportunities and raise awareness of the natural aspects of aquatic life. Furthermore, public access sites linked by green corridors would connect developments, removing both real and perceived barriers, and infusing the waterfront with the city’s vibrancy. This type of urban redevelopment can transform underutilized waterfront areas. Cities benefit from increased tourism, employment, and growth. Such an amenity would attract high-quality investments and encourage people to reconnect with the water—a connection lost during a century of industrialization. Most importantly, a lively waterfront unites residents and visitors in a shared experience. Through daily exchanges of ideas and perspectives, the community finds the motivation to continually improve and reinvent itself.  (Integrated Neighborhood Growth focus on environmentally conscious sustainable design)
