Massive changes to the downtown, Northside, university corridor
I haven't heard any buzz about these developments, so I'd like to share what I stumbled across.
Riverside Alive - massive commercial space, nightlife , hotels and expansion of convention center. This would be a massive addition and expansion to downtown.
Riverside adventure center - a huge outdoor water sports park, hiking trails, shopping corridor (including a grocery store), hotels and housing in Northside. Theoretically this would connect Northside and downtown as a strong entertainment hub. There are plans to connect pedestrian access to downtown.

New Neighborhood Library - a digital and tech library planned to open in Eastside
UCR innovation and business center - green energy jobs, training, and research that wins to draw in and keep qualified professionals.
This is a strong change from constant warehouse pimping and should positively impact riverside.
Thoughts?
