    The Trinity River Project is transforming the identity of Fort Worth into a bustling, waterfront city. first ever civil works project to win the “Good Neighbor Award” for sustainability from U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. The Trinity River Vision Authority (TRVA) is the organization responsible for the implementation of the Trinity River Vision (TRV) – a master plan for the Trinity River in Fort Worth, Texas. The seeds of this vision are now taking shape before the eyes of the city. While the primary purpose of the project is to provide needed flood protection, it will double the size of the most livable central business district in the nation. The Vision also provides for the creation of new recreational amenities, improved infrastructure, unique public spaces and responsible environmental enhancements. The components TRVA oversees include the creation of Panther Island, a vibrant, pedestrian-oriented, urban waterfront district adjacent to downtown Fort Worth, the expansion of Gateway Park into one of the largest urban-programmed parks in the nation and the enhancement of the river corridor including over 90 user- requested projects along the Trinity Trails. In addition to this, to help attract businesses and entertainment to the district, TRVA is responsible for programming the project’s public spaces, including Panther Island Pavilion, a waterfront event venue directly adjacent to downtown Fort Worth hosting concerts, festivals, runs and other exciting events. Panther Island, the most well-known component of the Trinity River Vision, has triggered a rebirth of the district north of Flowing canals will be the heart downtown Fort Worth into an urban waterfront community.
