This is a rendering for the city of Elgin of the Riverside Drive Promenade as envisioned by Hitchcock Design Group. |
Expect Elgin’s Center City to be a busy place as the
weather turns warmer — there are a handful of road construction projects on the
way, both directly downtown and in the immediate area.
Featuring prominently in the work will be the $10 million
Riverside Drive Promenade project, which includes demolishing the Riverside
Drive parking deck and transforming that section of riverfront into the
Riverside Drive Promenade. City engineer Joe Evers said Thursday work on the
project should get under way in June or July and extend into 2013.
