This downtown revitalization transformed a former parking lot adjacent to Holland River Park and Fairy Lake in Newmarket into a multi-use, adaptable location for town-wide and regional events. Riverwalk Commons has become an inviting destination, offering year-round activities, linking old and new, and bringing a new energy and excitement to the area.
