Riverfront

A riverfront is a "land or area along a river," often in larger cities that are traversed or bordered by one or more rivers or canals. The riverfronts are mostly lined with marinas, docks, cafes, museums, parks, or minor attractions. In the late 20th and 21st centuries, many riverfronts are a staple of modernism, economic development, environmental preservation, and city beautification. (Wikipedia)
