Welcome back to Meet Us in Downtown with DPPN! ✨ Today we’re catching up with a friend who lives and works right here in the city—and walks the Riverwalk loop daily. We even compared it to the Seine in Paris! 🇫🇷🌊
We also talked about something exciting coming soon: our wayfinding project launching in downtown parks this year! Stay tuned—this is just the beginning.
Thanks for meeting us Downtown! 💬🏙️
