Located along the shores of Canandaigua Lake, the City of Canandaigua’s waterfront parks represent significant recreational assets for the community. We were engaged to develop a comprehensive master plan for these valuable lakefront spaces, focusing on enhancing public access, expanding recreational opportunities, and preserving the natural beauty that makes these parks unique destinations
Building upon the momentum generated by Canandaigua’s Active Transportation Plan, our planning process centers on extensive community engagement to ensure the master plan reflects local aspirations and demands. Through robust public outreach initiatives, we have gathered detailed input about desired recreational amenities, access improvements, and programming opportunities that will shape the parks’ future development.
The master planning effort included detailed evaluations of current park facilities, identifying strategic enhancement opportunities, and developing specific improvement projects. Our analysis considers immediate needs and long-term growth projections, ensuring the waterfront parks evolve thoughtfully to serve future generations.
