Riverside Park Renovation

The City has renovated one of the City's favorite parks to bring it back as a popular meeting place for residents. The new design incorporates an interactive (zero depth) fountain that youth can play in surrounded by spectacular lighting in the shape of flowers, a Gazebo, new signage, and a promenade that leads visitors to the small existing zoo. There are a lot of existing things happening in Central Riverside Park.

Riverside park is now complete, visit today and enjoy all  the fun things to do!
