Featured Project: Smale Riverfront Park
Location: Downtown Cincinnati, OH
Smale Riverfront Park is a 32-acre park along the banks of the Ohio River in downtown Cincinnati. It is one of the largest in a series of public parks along the river, and provides a dynamic foreground for two professional sports venues, the National Underground Railroad Freedom Center and a mixed-use neighborhood referred to as The Banks. The project sponsored by several local government agencies focused on three main goals: creating a grand civic space open to the public; offering pedestrians river accessibility both visually and physically; and setting aside specific areas to accommodate events and festivals. Hydro Dramatics worked with Sasaki Associates on a feature cascade fountain, overlooks with rain curtains, and two interactive water features. The parks many varied features includes fountains, walkways, gardens, event lawns, playgrounds and restaurants contribute to the exceptional quality of life and experience to be cultivated and enjoyed throughout the area.
