Wolverine World Wide Riverfront Development: Design Concept #3

Here is the third concept for Wolverine World Wide's proposed Riverfront Development that Visbeen Associates designed in partnership with GMB Architecture+Engineering. Unlike the other two concepts, this design centers around a new building for a museum that would take visitors through the "Wolverine World Wide Experience," outlining the history of the company and a product trail. With ample green space, this concept includes a mountain bike challenge course, wetland restoration for fishing and kayaking as well as an amphitheater for community gathering and events. It incorporates the new construction of a retail outlet and conference center building from design concept #2 adjacent to a new, permanent location for the Rockford Farmer's Market.

Wolverine World Wide Riverfront Development: Design Concept #2

The second conceptual design Visbeen Associates and GMB Architecture+Engineering created for Wolverine World Wide's proposed Riverfront Development involved tearing down the existing structures on the property to make room for a new retail outlet and conference center building. Just like in concept #1, the second concept integrated a retirement village, independent and assisted living facilities, a new home for Rockford's farmer's market, as well as a community pavilion and a riverfront bandstand for summer concerts.
