Riverfront Development

This past Monday, I attended the Masterplan for the Topeka Riverfront Development. Going into the meeting, it was difficult not to be skeptical considering so many things that has happened in Topeka. From bad attiudes to bad planning, Topeka has seen a fair share

The Masterplan was impressive. If you did not go to the meeting, you missed out. The information should be online. It was clear that a lot of thought and care had been put into the Masterplan. The group Sasaki Associates has provided other Masterplans in the United States. It was evident why.

I was disappointed the next day to read so many comments posted a local website dismissing the idea. The majority of those who posted were not at the meeting.

What does Topeka want?
