"The Central Waterfront is a place of transitioning from the urban core of downtown to the tranquil shores of the Northeastern Muskegon Lake
Proposed enhancement of Terrace Point and Viridian Drive will aid in the evolution of the existing lake front businesses, while mixed-use infill and new housing have the ability to bridge the gaps along the corridor. Through the creation of safe crossings along Shoreline Drive, proposed trails from the popular Smith Ryerson Park through the Green Acres Park will help to connect the nearby neighborhoods to the multi-use trail, Fisherman's Landing and North to Richard's Park. Through the linking of these key public green spaces, the Central Waterfront District can provide a more accessible route for locals to experience the waterfront.
