Cincinnati Riverfront Park Project Manager Dave Prather takes viewers on a virtual "Hard Hat Tour" construction update in a video added to the project website.
Highlighted in the video are the Walnut Street Event Lawn, Moerlein Lager House, Bike & Mobility Center, and parking garage.
Prather also discusses how park planners have taken into account seasonal floods on the Ohio River.
Phase I of the park also will include water features, a tree grove and gardens, a labyrinth, and a monument to the Black Brigade of Cincinnati. The project is on budget and scheduled to open in spring 2011.
Future video updates are planned as construction progresses.

Great post! That progress report really helped me to envision exactly how awesome Riverfront Park is going to be next year; I can't wait to get a beer at the ale house.
At the 1:47 point, the project manager mentions a platform for a hotel. I didn't think a hotel was part of the first phrase. Any ideas what that means?
^ He's standing on a platform for a hotel that will be part of the first phase of The Banks, along Main Street (Joe Nuxhall Way), looking down at what will be Cincinnati Riverfront Park.
