Lee Altman, project manager at landscape architecture firm SCAPE, said Wednesday that the design on display next week will be an evolution of initial idealistic renderings that have been fine-tuned taking into account such logistics as utility lines and parking.
“The drawings we developed earlier were highly conceptual and trying to make sense of what the vision was, and (the new design) is really bringing that vision down to earth, understanding what can fit where,” she said.
SCAPE was tasked in late 2019 with studying ways to make the downtown waterfront more vibrant, and how to invest money into development that would see the biggest return for the community.
