AMN PLUS-March 27\/2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Kurtumi Riverside, developed under Addis Ababa\u2019s Riverside Development Projects Initiative, has emerged as a vibrant recreational destination for residents and visitors, seamlessly blending nature with modernity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The development features 21,906 square meters of floor space, a modern plaza, and an expansive 7 hectares of green space. Stretching 2.2 kilometers, the Kurtumi Riverside marks a major milestone in the city\u2019s ongoing environmental protection efforts, as observed during a recent field visit by AMN.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A 4-kilometer-long, high-quality pedestrian walkway ensures safe, comfortable, and accessible movement for residents both day and night. Beyond its scenic appeal, the riverside has become a lively social and commercial hub, offering experiences ranging from art galleries and traditional clothing shops to a variety of retail outlets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The site also includes children\u2019s playgrounds, sports facilities, five amphitheaters, and modern restaurants, catering to all age groups. The seven hectares of greenery, filled with trees and plants, create a refreshing natural environment within the urban landscape.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A standout feature of the project is its three-storey underground parking facility, accommodating up to 500 vehicles. Equipped with advanced digital surveillance, fire protection systems, and electric vehicle charging stations, it reflects a forward-looking approach to urban infrastructure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Overall, the Kurtumi Riverside project enhances recreational opportunities for Addis Ababa\u2019s residents, generates employment, and serves as a model for the city\u2019s evolving urban transformation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
