Riverfront

Quote:
City to unveil riverfront

By Sebastian Kitchen

The heart of Montgomery's riverfront transformation will be ready for visitors early this summer.

After years of planning and construction, Mayor Bobby Bright and other officials are delighted to know people soon will be able to see the progress.

The phase that will open first will include the amphitheater, a pavilion and 540 feet of riverfront access, including a portion that extends several feet over the Alabama River. People can fish from the riverfront, picnic on the grass or just enjoy a view of the river.

"It's going to be one of the nicer riverwalks around," said Terry Jordan, the city's project coordinator for the riverwalk construction.

The amphitheater will be ready for an April 22 country music concert, the Riverwalk Jazz and Blues Fest on April 28 and 29 and for Jubilee CityFest in late May.

Jordan said the riverfront will "be dressed up and looking nice" for the events.
