(Lawrenceburg, Ind.) - The Lawrenceburg Riverwalk is coming soon. 

A sign posted on the Lawrenceburg Levee near the Clock Tower shows some renderings of what the finished project could look like. 

Plans include a wide paved walkway with overhangs and plenty of space for pedestrians, cyclists, swings, and benches. New barges will include two restaurants with casual dining and spaces for strolling, gathering and events. 

New bridges will provide access to the floating park, which will include docking for personal boats and larger vessels. 

The idea is to make the end of Walnut Street and the Riverwalk a seamless extension of downtown Lawrenceburg. 

A construction start date has not been released at this time.
