The “Big Wow” on the Riverfront in Allegan is the goal of a plan to upgrade the string of riverfront property in Allegan’s downtown. While the plan’s draft hasn’t been made public, at a previous public meeting ideas abounded.
“We’ve talked about things like ice skating rinks, amphitheaters in the riverfront area, the greening up of the parking lot,” City Manager-Clerk Robert Hillard said. More parking space is among the suggestions.
The Riverfront Design Meeting is set for 7 p.m. Thursday, April 11, at the Griswold Memorial Auditorium. The public is invited. This will be the last meeting for public input.
