Commemorating the importance of the rich industrial and commercial heritage of Gateway Point, A|r provided a delicate merging of historical interpretation with feasible economic development initiatives to assist the City of North Tonawanda in maximizing the full potential of this eight-acre Erie Canal waterfront site. The collaboration of the project steering committee and our design team resulted in a mixed-use pedestrian-oriented development with generous park space, boat launches and heritage interpretation features. The plan enhances North Tonawanda’s vibrant downtown community, provides connections to waterfront parks and strengthens the district as a regional tourist destination.
