Promenade Park
Fort Wayne, Indiana
Fort Wayne, Indiana was founded on three rivers, but access to and celebration of those rivers was limited. To honor this history and develop the future, the City of Fort Wayne launched an ambitious, multi-phase development to create a signature space for recreation, relaxation, and reflection in downtown Fort Wayne.
Alongside members of the Riverworks Design Group, Design Collaborative assisted in the development and design for Phase I – Promenade Park. Our team led the design of key structures, including a 6,400 SF pavilion and a two-sided bandshell while providing stunning lighting design, project management, and construction management for the entire 4.5-acre project site. The promenade brings new retail, dining, and walking path experiences to downtown Fort Wayne and offers activities for all.
