About Us

RiverPlace on the Schuylkill is a community-based non-profit initiative.

Our mission

To use the power of the River as a catalyst to unite communities and foster economic development.

Our vision

An environment where the Berks County Community comes together to enjoy living, playing, and working in and on both sides of the River and its neighborhoods.

RiverPlace Development Corporation is committed
to
making this dream a reality.                               

                                       

We begin with the River as the "soul" of the community. Together we have the power to make a change for prosperity by reconnecting to the river, and to each other. The public response has been overwhelmingly supportive. We invite you to learn more about RiverPlace and welcome you to volunteer.

                                        -   David Thun, Chairman of the Board,

                                             RiverPlace Development Corporation

 

As Peter Seeger once sang...
"There's no telling what the power of the people and the river can do."
