THE PLANS BEHIND THE EXECUTED RIVERWALK COURSE
The executed course is the plan's footprint: the founding fragment carries the Riverwalk's staged building — 2003, the south bank and the Kamm bridges; 2004, Beutter Riverfront Park on the cleared Ball Band ground (the park established in 2005 on the standard telling, its plant demolished in June 2000 on the university archive's telling and in 2001 on the state marker's — that conflict is printed in the film addendum to this build); 2008, the cable-stayed link; 2009, the west completion; 2015, the Central Park extension; October 2023, the east extension. A riverfront built in dated stages over twenty years is a riverfront built to a plan, and the stages are the surviving public shape of it.
The gap, printed as a gap:The searches run were for a Mishawaka riverfront or Riverwalk master plan as a published document, in the city's own postings and in the design and trails literature; they returned the built walk, its stages and its awards, not an adopted plan text. The settling sources are named: the Mishawaka Redevelopment Commission's minutes and the city engineering department's project files, where a plan of record, if one was adopted, would sit. The executed course stands in the founding fragment at full size; this addendum prints the plan document itself as not yet produced, and does not promote the stages into a plan they may only resemble.
