The Riverside Community is in the Town of Southampton, bordering the Peconic River. In 2015 The Town of Southampton identified this area in their Redevelopment Plan for the Riverside Community.
This project is being revamped but will focus on increased healthy, safe recreation as well as enhanced coastal vulnerability and resiliency in an area identified as disadvantaged. The concept plan is community-driven, prioritizing healthy water quality restorations for safe water access, recreation, and education for the local community.
