The latest designs for the Currents of Kankakee’s East Riverwalk will be released Wednesday as part of a series of meetings.  The public, in-person unveiling will be 6 p.m. at The Majestic banquet hall in downtown Kankakee. The public presentation will include discussion from members of the Kankakee Riverfront Society and the architectural consulting group, Hitchcock Design Group.

The presentation is part of the final design phase of the East Riverwalk, which is the planned park-like, public-space development at the southeast corner of South Schuyler Avenue and East River Street, just north of the Kankakee River.  The ultimate redevelopment of the site is expected to be in the $3 million range. The Riverfront Society is seeking private contributions to fund the project and other public riverfront developments.
