Big things are coming our way for the famous Grand River!
A River for All is a project of the City of Grand Rapids that includes the design of 6 opportunity sites along the Grand River and the creation of design guidelines. The design guidelines apply to the entire 7.5 mile river trail that will someday flank both sides of the Grand River from Riverside Park to the north and Millennium Park to the south.
Work on the $44 million Grand Rapids Whitewater project is expected to start, pending the approval of federal permits, in late 2019 or spring of 2020, officials say.
