Evolving an Iconic Riverfront in Chattanooga!
Following a community-driven concept plan developed during the Summer of 2023, we are thrilled to be kicking off detailed design for the Chattanooga Riverfront! The unveiling of the concept plan generated enthusiasm for both honoring the iconic riverfront design while evolving it for more everyday uses and activities. According to the project website:
“Thousands of residents have shared their hopes and desires for the Riverfront District through the ONE Riverfront Plan!
Community input serves as the foundation for the ONE Riverfront Plan and collectively, Chattanoogans developed eight strategies to reinvigorate the riverfront. Today, we embark upon the next phase for our Riverfront Parks and “evolve” them into a place for people to enjoy year-round.
The Evolving our Riverfront Parks plan is a series of enhancements that will honor history, connect corridors in the district, embrace ecology, soften and provide shade, along with using the inspiration of a southern porch for areas along the river.”
Moving forward, we are excited to grow our team to include:
- Agency – Prime Consultant, Project Manager, Landscape Architect and Design Lead
