Join us at a meeting and open house Wednesday to engage in the process of selecting the final design team for Riverfront Park's Public Spaces and Park Grounds. City of Spokane Parks and Recreation is hosting the event for the three finalist landscape design teams to give presentations to the public and answer questions on their initial ideas and approach.

At the event, citizens can meet the finalist teams, ask questions, see work they have already produced for other projects, see the team's initial ideas and approach for Riverfront Park, and give feedback.

The presentations will begin at 6 p.m. on Wednesday, June 3rd in the Council Chambers at City Hall (808 Spokane Falls Blvd.). The open house starts at 7:30 and will end around 9 p.m.

On June 4th, interviews with each of the respective teams will be held by a Park Board-appointed Design Steering Committee. The Park Board Design Steering Committee will deliver a recommendation to the Park Board, which will ultimately choose the winning designer this summer.
