Parking Garage & Fire Station Gone --- a Chance to Promenade Again

The City tore their buildings down, opening up the block bounded by 

  Front Street on the east 

  Riverside Drive on the west 

  Union on the south

  Monroe on the north. 

 

It's a key section of our riverfront, and now there's an opportunity to continue the greenway system across it, along the bluff above the Mississippi River.                 

 

The land is part of the Public Promenade, set aside in 1819, for this very use.
