Riverfront for All

This visionary project transforms the last remaining working wharfs into a public park and recreational facility. It will link Crescent Park to the Moonwalk, creating 2.25 miles of contiguous park space along the Mississippi River for the first time in generations.

Join us for a public schematic plan meeting in the event space at Audubon Aquarium and Audubon lnsectarium. Attendees should enter through Bienville Street and walk to the Aquarium and lnsectarium event space located to the right of the main lobby. 

Riverfront for All will create one of the largest contiguous riverfront parks in the nation. This historic project will unlock a key stretch of land, expanding access for locals and visitors to enjoy riverfront access in a way that honors the original design of the city.
