Beyond the Chutes: Protecting Our Community, Reimagining Our River *
Hoosic River Revival (HRR) is working to shape a future where modern, climate-resilient flood protection goes hand in hand with a healthier, more accessible river. Through advocacy, collaboration, and community engagement, we champion solutions that protect North Adams while unlocking the Hoosic River’s ecological, cultural, recreational, and economic potential.
PROTECT
Modernizing infrastructure while restoring river health.
Through advocacy, education, and collaboration, HRR champions the modernization of the Hoosic River's flood-control system. We support innovative solutions that maintain essential flood protection while improving water quality, restoring ecological function, and creating a healthier, more resilient river
IMPROVE
Building a safer, more resilient North Adams.
The Hoosic River's aging flood-control system has protected North Adams for generations, but changing climate conditions and deteriorating infrastructure present new challenges. HRR advocates for long-term modern solutions that strengthen flood protection, improve climate resilience, and safeguard our community for generations to come.
CONNECT
Celebrating the Hoosic River as a community asset.
The Hoosic River is more than a flood-control channel. It is an important part of North Adams' history, identity, and future. Through education, events, and community partnerships, HRR works to raise awareness of the river's ecological, cultural, recreational, and economic value—and inspire greater appreciation and stewardship.
HIGHLIGHT
Bringing our community closer to the river.
The Hoosic River has the potential to be a vibrant gathering place and recreational resource for North Adams. Through initiatives like the planned Hoosic RiverWalk, Hoosic River Run, community partnerships, and public engagement, HRR is working to expand opportunities for people to experience, enjoy, and reconnect with the river.
