Park Accessibility
In addition to the accessible playground and kayak launch at Rotary Park, we are seeking funds to enhance accessibility at Heritage Landing. Currently, in partnership with Muskegon County, the Muskegon Lakeshore Chamber of Commerce, the City of Muskegon, and private landowners, The Smith Group is developing a Downtown Waterfront Conceptual Plan that includes a major redesign of Heritage Landing. Several projects are planned, including additional ADA bathrooms, sidewalk maintenance and improvements, and ADA playground equipment.
