Waterfront Park Employee Directory

The Waterfront isn't just a place, it's an experience. An experience that's different for everyone. We're a peaceful oasis in the heart of the city. We're a natural haven for quiet reflection. We're an ongoing festival of sounds and sights. We're your favorite band blasting into the night sky. And we're right here, accessible to all. Since the comp... letion of the first portions of Waterfront Park in the mid 1990's, the Waterfront Development Corporation's role has evolved into a three-part mission: park planning and construction; park maintenance; and event production and coordination. WDC oversees its mission from our funky little building on the wharf, which has its own interesting history. We also manage the Belle of Louisville on behalf of Louisville Metro, have Design Review Authority in the Waterfront District, and developed the master plan for Riverview Park in Southwest Jefferson County. Park planning and construction shifted into high gear with the creation of the Louisville Waterfront Master Plan, which was approved in 1991, and continues today with design and construction of Phase IV of the park. An office staff of nine oversees planning, project oversight, Waterfront District design review, event production and coordination, fundraising, and other administrative functions.Read More
