HKGi will conduct Riverfront Workshops throughout the process to <br />ensure the community can provide input to the design. Workshops will be structured to provide <br />focus an the Riverfront and the issues that will make this project a success. We will also meet with <br />the Riverfront Committee and City staff to ensure basic programmatic elements are considered. <br />As the project covers azeas that are not controlled by the City, HKGi and City staff will arrange <br />meetings with property owners to determine their specific needs and concerns.
