The Facts

• RIVER PRESERVATION: The improvements made to the River District area have been designed to respect the Poudre River and its surrounding natural environment. All project elements support and follow the suggestions of the Poudre River Enhancement Project.
• FUNDING: The River District Design Project is jointly funded by the City and the Downtown Development Authority (DDA).
• TRUCK MOBILITY: The improvements made to the River District will allow trucks and other large vechicles to drive through the area and access local commercial and industrial buildings.
• COMMUNITY PROJECTS: The River District project is just one of many large-scale projects taking place in Downtown and beyond. The River District works in partnership with Beet Street, UniverCity Connections, and the Mason Corridor to leverage ideas and resources.
• TRULY UNIQUE: The River District is the only area in town that connects Old Town, the Poudre River, agri-industrial architecture, and the rich history of Fort Collins.
