This historic and scenic section of the West Branch Susquehanna River waterfront, in the City of Lock Haven and Woodward Township (Clinton County), was once threatened by a controversial US Army Corps of Engineers dike-levee flood protection project. In an effort to protect features treasured by residents, a local planning team participated in the design phase and was successful in having five key amenities included: a riverwalk; a pavilion, access ramps, bleacher seating, and a concrete swimming enclosure to revive the YMCA beach; an amphitheater; a Riverview Park; and a public boat launch. Since completion of the flood protection project in 1995, the City, Township, and others have partnered to implement riverfront improvements and host events to enhance public enjoyment of this cherished area. Popular events along this lively riverfront include the Labor Day Speedboat Regatta, Riverfest, Great Island Adventure Triathlon, and a summer concert series on a floating stage. Residents and visitors find the new riverfront to be a special place for all to enjoy.
