The city finally gave us the green light for The Eddy. I am drained from this long fight but looking forward to seeing this space come to life for all of us. Keep an eye on the site because we will be watching to ensure everything stays on track.

This petition is in support of The Eddy project in the Downtown Reno/ Riverwalk District at 16 South Sierra Street. The Eddy will be an outdoor beer garden & community space with the bar’s being housed within shipping containers. This is an eco-friendly, artistic design that has been very popular in many large cities such as San Francisco, San Diego and Austin, TX. The space will also be made available for daytime community & family friendly events such as yoga classes, farmer’s markets, art showcases, and live performances. In the evenings, the space will mostly be utilized as a traditional beer garden venue, with live music independently permitted to coincide with special events. This will make a positive impact on the surrounding neighborhoods by bringing patrons who would normally not come to the area during the daytime or evening hours & providing a safe place for families to recreate. The Eddy will also be making a positive impact by providing a venue for local artists & vendors to showcase and sell their work. The overall plan & design for The Eddy is in line with the ReImagine Reno Project.
We, the undersigned, are citizens & business owners in Reno who are in support of this project. We believe that this project is going to add to the underdeveloped & underutilized area that is the Riverwalk and overall have a positive impact on the neighborhood and community at large.

Reaching this point has been a long road and the weight of the work is starting to show. Seeing how many people believe in the vision for The Eddy makes the exhaustion worthwhile.

This will only better our dowtown community and riverwalk. If campo and ole bridge aren't disturbing the artist lofts, then either will this. The river should be used by the public!
This is a thoughtful, community based project. I support this project and hope to see this realized. The container bar in Austin is smart and attractive but it lacks the community engagement that this project seeks to provide. It's use cycle is beyond the happy hour to closing time which makes this an amenity, not a nuisance. Best of luck!
I think this project will positively enhance the downtown experience for not only our tourists and locals alike. I know I will patronize this venue - and I don't even drink!!
If we want our community to prosper, we need a vibrant and diverse downtown. I understand some of the hesitation from residents. But choosing to live in the heart of downtown's commercial zone comes with some sacrifice. Reno needs this to continue our theme of cultural maturation. I support it!!!
Great idea that would support a positive scene for Reno. Supports food truck vendors along with local beverage distributors. Gets rid of the gravel pit eye sore that exists now
Looks really cool
This is a great revitalization project on the river walk. Can't wait to see it, and several others come to fruition.

We need this, let's make our downtown beautiful, and somewhere that the people that actually live here would like to come, I can tell you now most of the people that actually live in Reno, don't visit the downtown corridor although there has been tremendous improvement, it still not a place, other than the ballpark that I would let me kids go.
