Riverfront Plan

Pekin RiverfrontPekin’s Riverfront has been transformed over the last few years, adding several recreational amenities for community members and visitors to enjoy.  This includes a new fishing pier, playground, picnic tables and access to the Park District’s walking trail.  A new Festival Plaza and Event Meadow have also been added – allowing space for festivals, special events or large family outings.

Riverfront Business Opportunities

We are also encouraging business startups and relocations along the Riverfront.  Currently we have one rental property available, however there will soon be a 9.12 acre parcel available for development. This area falls within both the TIF 1 boundaries and the Enterprise Zone.
