An open plaza will connect to the waterfront through a unique art tunnel.\nThe site’s historic wharf will be transformed into an inviting waterfront park for gathering\, performances\, and events.\nDue to its location on a protected oxbow\, Turkey Bend will also become the boating hub of Buffalo Bayou East with safe access for canoeing\, kayaking\, and pontoon boat tours.\nNavigation Boulevard will be realigned to allow for safe pedestrian and bicycle connections.\n\n\nLatinos in Architecture COLORES Sponsors\nInformation about becoming a sponsor can be found here.  \nPlatinum Sponsor\nHOK\nLESCO Architectural Lighting\nPage\nTATEMÓ \nGold Sponsors\nAllegion\ncre8 Architects\nGage Architecture\nKirksey Architecture \nSilver Sponsors\nC.A.
