Although Waterside is currently only partially occupied, the city has created a beautiful waterfront park next door. The USS Wisconsin is permanently moored nearby, and beyond that is the lovingly restored Freemason Street area.

During the day Saturday, some of the attendees rode the entire 7.4 miles of The Tide (started and stopped from MacArthur Mall station, so a total of 14.8 miles).
