SUMMARY:Nashville to Transform Downtown Riverfront - Tennessean Article by Michael Cass
DESCRIPTION:This city that grew up around the Cumberland River\, then turned away from its steep banks and used it primarily for drinking water and a sewage dump\, is finally poised to embrace it again.\nAfter years of inertia\, neglect and piecemeal changes\, Nashville is ready to remake its downtown riverfront. Parks\, piers\, fountains\, walkways and scenic overlooks could make the river a gathering spot for residents and tourists alike.\n"The timing is great because I believe this is a project most Nashvillians are excited about\," said Kate Monaghan\, former director of the Nashville Civic Design Center. "It's something they've been expecting and hoping for for a long time."\nMayor Karl Dean has recommended that the city spend about $30 million in the next few years to build six projects — three on each bank of the Cumberland. The Metro Council\, which has the final say\, is expected to consider the projects in June. The projects are part of Dean's $560 million capital budget.\nFor more information on the Nashville Civic Design Center's involvement in the planning process for the riverfront redevelopment visit www.civicdesigncenter.org/projects/projects/2009/02/17/nashville-riverfront-redevelopment.8199 [http\://www.civicdesigncenter.org/projects/projects/2009/02/17/nashville-riverfront-redevelopment.8199]\nOther sites related to Nashville's Riverfront Redevelopment\:\nMetro Parks Department www.nashville.gov/parks/riverfront/ [http\://www.nashville.gov/parks/riverfront/]\nMetro Development & Housing Agency www.nashville.gov/mdha/waterfront_redevelopment.htm [http\://www.nashville.gov/mdha/waterfront_redevelopment.htm]\n
