Downtown Riverfront Park Update
Due to ongoing construction delays, the Downtown Riverfront Park will take a little bit longer to complete.
We had hoped to open in August. Unfortunately, we are seeing the results of nationwide supply chain issues, labor shortages and other residual effects of the COVID-19 pandemic play out on a local level. These delays, coupled with new OSHA rules to protect the safety of staff and contractors working in the heat, mean that we need to push out the opening of the park to late fall.
This is a landmark project for the City of Eugene and with it come high expectations of quality and finish. We want to make sure we are exceeding those expectations when we officially open this park. We look forward to welcoming park visitors and delivering a safe and first-class experience as soon as we can.
The Downtown Riverfront Park is now open!
