Salem Riverfront Park is one of Salem’s premier, treasured, and well used parks. Through a robust public outreach process, GreenWorks and City staff worked with focus groups and the public to develop and prioritize concepts for park improvements and additions.  A key feature in the new addition to the park is a new, larger amphitheater designed to complement a proposed covered stage and a river viewing terrace with dramatic views of the Peter Courtney Minto-Island Bridge.

Relocating the covered stage and amphitheater to the south end of the park means Salem can host larger events in the park and take advantage of the soon to be upgraded areas: nature play area, terraced overlook seating, playground, splash pad, pavilion, and seasonal ice rink.
