The grand reopening of Levee Park with the dedication of the Rotary Pavilion was the place to be on Thursday afternoon with hundreds gathered for the ribbon cutting and official recognition for those who have made it possible to spend a perfectly lovely late afternoon along the mighty Mississippi. Mayor Hicks addressed the crowd perched along the stone amphitheater tiers with equal parts pride and accomplishment as the area filled with local residents, visitors and dignitaries of all kinds.
We will feature several of the comments and conversations we recorded at the celebration and find out what the community thinks of the newest hotspot down by the riverside. Also listen to part one of a special two part re-broadcast of the riverfront ceremony on Monday, Memorial day.
