Public invited to give feedback on future of riverfront parks Thursday

As they try to increase usage of some of Chattanooga’s riverfront parks, officials are requesting public input about the parks on the south side of the Tennessee River, including Ross’s Landing, Chattanooga Green and parts of the Tennessee Riverwalk.

A free event Thursday at the Hunter Museum will allow residents to give feedback on what they want the riverfront’s future to look like.

Those who attend Thursday’s open house — hosted by the city’s Department of Parks and Outdoors, the River City Co. and the Chattanooga Design Studio — can speak with design teams and interact with the layout of three different models for the riverfront parks on the south side of the Tennessee River.
