Officials to consider adding riverfront vision to city’s 20-year strategic plan

By KMAN Staff on July 31, 2025 Local News, Manhattan

By Brandon Peoples and Cole Bertelsen

A proposal to reshape Manhattan’s waterfront may soon become part of the city’s 20-year strategic plan for the Parks and Recreation Department.

Local stakeholders in the last few years have discussed developing the area around the banks of the Kansas River where it crosses Kansas Highway 177.

City commissioners on Tuesday will review a recommendation from the Manhattan Urban Area Planning Board to incorporate the city’s MoveMHK Master Plan into the city’s comprehensive plan. While city officials have not formally adopted any specific project, any future riverfront development could be considered during the annual review of the Move MHK Plan, which was adopted in June 2024.

The Riverfront vision plan proposes pedestrian boardwalk access from Fairmont Park to the Kansas River. Renderings included in the plan show what changes to the area could look like.
Pictured, a map outlines all areas with suggested additions included in the Riverfront vision plan.
