The City of Dayton and its part in the Riverfront Plan was highlighted in a story by the Dayton Daily News, reporting on Dayton approving funds to remake parts of the Wolf Creek levee, for easier access and economic development.

Dayton City Manager Shelley Dickstein said the project will create several new access points to the waterway and city funding will help pay for lighting, signage and a new plaza.

The city previously approved spending $300,000 to hire a firm to complete engineering design services to improve the Wolf Creek levee.

City documents state that the plan is to lay back the levee from the Edwin C. Moses bridge to the Orth Avenue on the north side of Wolf Creek. The city and Miami Conservancy District want to remake the levee on the southside of the waterway from West First Street to Paisley Street.
