  "projectDescription": "The Riverbend Phase II project restored and protected riparian and upland habitat; reclaimed a former brownfield site; improved connectivity along the Buffalo River Greenway; and created an economically valuable waterfront destination. The engineering and design of the habitat restoration was funded by NOAA in 2011 and the construction was completed in 2016. The project included the removal of invasive species and the development of a vegetated buffer of approximately 1,520 linear feet of shoreline, including approximately 3.5 acres of riparian and upland habitat, within a 100-foot-wide area along the Buffalo River.",
