Created by the state government to boost economic vitality along the Christina River in 1996, the Riverfront Development Corporation has been a catalyst for public and private investment to turn a series of warehouses into mixed-use land for residents and businesses. Under Megan McGlinchey’s leadership, the RDC has worked on site investigation and restoration initiatives that have enhanced and beautified the area into a tourism hub, starting first with Frawley Stadium. In the last five years, she has laid out a $100 million vision to expand the RDC’s efforts across the Christina River in a new project called Riverfront East. That project includes office space, retail space and 4,000 residential units.
