East Side River District

In order to enhance and better connect the area with the rest of the City and region, the Great River Passage is partnering with state, local and tribal organizations, businesses, and nonprofits to create a world-class vision for the East Side River District and a public landscape that everyone can enjoy. The combined vision includes the area bound by the Mississippi River on the south and west and the bluffs to the east and north.

Through a comprehensive, integrated design process, the vision for the district will fulfill the following goals:

  • Enhanced connection to and throughout the area
  • Orientation for parks users
  • Authentic, place-specific destinations
  • Identity reflecting the rich, complex nature of the district
