News & Riverfront Master Plan
The Riverfront Master Plan conveys a comprehensive approach for the redevelopment of prime real estate within four blocks of the Mississippi River in Quincy, Illinois. Reimagined as a dynamic community gathering place and welcoming gateway, the proposed riverfront incorporates new attractions and refreshes existing infrastructure to infuse life into one of Quincy and Adams County’s most valuable assets.
The design team poured over findings and feedback from the analysis and programming phases to create a new vision for the riverfront. This next-generation plan represents the culmination of over 12 months of study, planning, and engagement.
The plan represents a framework for riverfront redevelopment that represents the community’s vision while allowing for flexibility over the course of its phased implementation. The end result is a visionary, multi-generational riverfront experience that truly has something for everyone.
