Detroit Riverfront Conservancy

More Info

General Info

The Detroit RiverFront Conservancy, Inc. was formed as a 501 (c) (3) with the mission of developing access on the Detroit International Riverfront. The entire vision is 5 1/2 miles of Riverfront property, from the Ambassador Bridge to Gabriel Richard Park, just west of the Belle Isle Bridge, and will include a continuous RiverWalk along with parks, plazas and green spaces. Once completed, the Conservancy is responsible for the improvement, operations, maintenance and programming of the Detroit International Riverfront in perpetuity. The vision of Detroit's transformed Riverfront is clearly becoming reality. However, support is still needed to complete the project and to deliver the world class Riverfront that Detroit has always deserved. The Conservancy is underway with a $140 million capital campaign, which will provide the necessary funding to design and build a new public space, as well as permanently maintain, operate and program the Riverfront for the public. Capital campaign contributions are also welcome at any amount - via credit card or check. To donate via credit card, please enter the amount you are interested in giving in the space provided
