Cleveland’s Riverfront Reimagined

Building A Long-Term Legacy Along the Cuyahoga River

Project
Vision

The Riverfront Cleveland is a transformational, mixed-use development reimagining 35 acres of underutilized land and the historic Tower City Center along the Cuyahoga River. The 3.5 million square foot master plan development will include 12 acres of publicly accessible space including parks, plazas, trails, a 3,000 foot riverwalk, open areas and waterfront access with year-round activities.

Bedrock will advance the ambitious vision over the next 15 to 20 years. Construction began in 2023, as Bedrock delivers the public infrastructure and site necessary to launch The Riverfront’s first vertical development with the Cleveland Clinic Global Peak Performance Center, breaking ground in Fall of 2024.

The Riverfront is an integral component of City of Cleveland Mayor Justin Bibb’s transformational Shore-to-Core-to-Shore (SCS) development plan. The SCS connects Cleveland’s core Downtown Business District and Neighborhood to its two waterfronts—the Cuyahoga River and Lake Erie through a series of urban spaces, parks, streets and plazas.
