‘Canoe safari,’ riverfront walk and more among proposed features in Cedar Rapids’ Greenway Plan

As Minot continues to rebuild and add protection following the 2011 flood, we need to be on the look out for other communities on the same path. Cedar Rapids is one of those places. They are currently seeking community input for their riverfront Greenway Plan, which aims to enhance the area with new parks, sports areas, water features, and even a skateboard park. Their focus on creating vibrant, engaging spaces instead of merely shielding citizens from the river is an approach Minot needs to constantly bear in mind.
