There’s a blend of retail space, modern apartment communities, and vibrant green spaces scattered around the area. The Green River Trail is one of the more popular attractions in Riverfront. Miles of walking and biking trails connect to Lake Fenwick Park and provide fantastic views. Riverfront Park features the Riverbend Golf Complex, while Hogan Park at Russell Road contains several ball fields, tennis courts, and a playground.
