Wichitans got their first look Tuesday at a new plan to reimagine Wichita’s downtown riverfront, including what to do with Century II, Bob Brown Expo Hall and the former central library. The new plan, though, has begged the age-old question in this city: Did Wichita settle? The preliminary concept, presented to Wichita’s City Council by international design firm Populous, comes with a $400 million price tag — significantly less than the $1.2 billion Riverfront Legacy Master Plan, which had momentum in early 2020 until it was derailed by the Covid-19 pandemic.
