The General Motors Global Headquarters Riverfront Plaza is a mixed use project and Promenade that provides an overall framework for the Riverfront. The project builds off of the SOM Master Plan which repositions the development to engage the riverfront. The concept addresses the Renaissance Center as an urban landmark and corporate icon by placement and orientation of plazas, promontories and promenades. The overall plan strives to achieve an authenticity rooted in the nature of the Riverfront’s heritage, creating a plaza and promenade for a multiplicity of events and a lively public gathering place and source of corporate and civic pride for General Motors.
Tim Anderson oversaw the project as Principal at Hargreaves Associates.
