Final segment of east Detroit Riverwalk expected to be completed next year

The first step in building the final piece of Detroit’s east Riverwalk was taken Wednesday morning with a groundbreaking at Mt. Elliott Park.

When the work at the former Uniroyal site is complete in the fall of 2022 the Detroit Riverfront Conservancy’s vision for 3.5 miles of riverfront on Detroit’s east side, between Belle Isle and the Renaissance Center, will be realized.

“It’s been 20 years we’ve been working on this project,” said Matt Cullen, chairman of the conservancy. “We promised we’d connect the east riverfront when we started.”
