Downtown Riverfront Proposals
![](J%26J.plan@100.gif)
In Jarrod Levin and Jeremy Alden's plan for the
downtown park area, the park is extended north and south and the Gazebo
area is enhanced with planting and places to sit. A new ramp descends to
the river. Their proposal to close a portion of First Street to deepen
the riverfront park in this area is shown in the next larger view.
Several plans for this area called for a new
riverfront landing. In John Krausser's
proposal, basalt steps organize the rip-rap at the river's edge and
offer new places to fish or view the Willamette.
Allison Rouse's proposal for the area north of the Gazebo and boatlaunch
would provide a new park place, a small clearing and other downtown
recreation by the river.
