New Albany, IN

River Recreation Site Boat Launch

The City of New Albany has historically been cut off from its adjacent waterways due to industrial development and flooding protections, including earthen levees and levee walls. To better connect residents to Silver Creek and the Ohio River, HWC was tasked with developing the River Recreation Site Boat Ramp.

The River Recreation Site Boat Ramp was a multi-phase brownfield restoration project, which included demolition and clean-up, boat ramp for motorized watercraft, trail extension, and river overlook. 

The final phase will develop a nature park with trails and passive recreation opportunities.
