Open Spaces - Riverwalk

In 2009, CDOT opened the first sections of the river-level walkway from Michigan Avenue to State Street. The walkway winds under the Michigan and Wabash bridges, providing an uninterrupted route along the river from State Street to the lakefront.

The walkway was built out 17-20 feet into the river to create a new shoreline. Future plans call for extending the Riverwalk to Franklin. CDOT built the basic infrastructure for the Riverwalk as part of the Wacker Drive reconstruction of 2001-02. From spring to fall, the Riverwalk is home to several restaurants and retail spaces.

To view or use these shapefiles, compression software and special GIS software, such as ESRI ArcGIS, is required. To download, right-click the "Download" link above and choose "Save link as."
