The New Milford Riverfront Revitalization Project is a community-led effort to reimagine a vibrant 21st-century riverfront that connects with our historic Town Center. The vision aims to expand recreational opportunities, support community development, strengthen climate resiliency, and boost the local economy, while protecting the Housatonic River and its surrounding ecosystem.

Following the adoption of the Riverfront and Brownfield Area Revitalization Master Plan in 2021, the Town refined the Riverfront Plan in 2024 and is now launching a new phase of design development in 2025, led by WXY architecture + urban design.

This survey is an opportunity for residents, business owners, and community groups to share their ideas for the Riverfront and inform its future design.

This anonymous survey will take approximately 10 minutes to complete. Please try to complete the survey to the best of your ability. Your thoughtfulness will help build a vibrant future for New Milford's Riverfront. Thank you!
