The Detroit Riverwalk was recently voted the #1 Riverwalk in America in a USA Today competition for a second year in a row.
Mannik & Smith led a team of consultants (over a 10-year period) with the study and design of some of the most prominent riverfront venues – extending over 6 miles, from Gabriel Richard Park westward/downstream to the Gordie Howe International Crossing. The Detroit Riverfront Conservancy, MDOT and the City of Detroit all served as clients on the various contracts for this transformative world-class waterfront.
