Riverfront West Park
Much of the land on the north bank of
the Nashua River is in the flood plain.
These parcels of land can become the
jewel and center of Nashua's riverfront
park system. The park should include
both active and passive uses, including
play fields and an outdoor amphitheater.
All new development in the flood plain
are event oriented structures not subject
Nashua Downtown Master Plan
to flood plain regulations for habitable
structures. Front Street will become a
park drive and the new front door to
fully redeveloped Nashua Corporation
buildings. The regional trail system
should be incorporated in the park.
On the south bank of the river, Le
Parc de Notre Renaissance Francaise
should be improved. The Water Street
ramp currently looms over this park,

The flood plain will be
converted into the City’s
largest Downtown
open space, as well as
being connected to the
greater regional park
system.

more
industrial buildings,
like Clock tower Place,
will enliven this area of
Downtown with new
residents.
Water Street Ramp
Le Pare de Notre
Renaissance Francaise
can be improved by
eliminating one row of
parking (existing,

creating a screen of
landscape (proposed,
