The Rise of Downtown Sioux Falls
BIG MUDDY Workshop led the master planning and design for the revitalization of Falls Park in Sioux Falls, South Dakota. This recent article in the Sioux Falls Argus Leader (July 11, 2021 edition) details the 50-year history of this much needed effort and how the investment in public spaces brought new life to this community’s downtown area.
Excerpts:
“It took about 50 years, generations of city leaders and millions of dollars of public and private investment to make downtown Sioux Falls to what it is today: the crown jewel of the city, teeming with the promise of more development and becoming Sioux Fall’s most profitable area.”
“The Revitalization of Falls Park was the beginning of Sioux Falls’ city leaders reinvestment in public spaces in downtown Sioux Falls, which turned the tide of downtown Sioux Falls as a whole.”
