Nashua, NH After a competitive public bidding process, the City of Nashua, has engaged Halvorson Design Partnership to develop a vision for future development along the downtown riverfront. This three month long planning exercise involves in-depth analysis and community outreach and will guide the city over the next 20 years.

With the kickoff of the first community meeting on April 12th, the city has begun seeking input from residents and business owners about their desires for the downtown district. Public input also includes virtual participation from online community 

Ultimately, the completed planning process hopes to identify key areas for future economic development, create better connections for pedestrians and local businesses, improve waterfront amenities for public gathering and minimize ecological impact on the river itself.

“We are excited to work with the City of Nashua to fully realize their vision,” said Halvorson Design principal, Bob Uhlig. “Through this process, we hope to learn what the City and residents are most excited about and spark some imaginative ideas about how to accomplish them. Our goal is to prepare a plan that is responsive to Nashua’s needs, makes sense for the city and really draws people downtown.”
