Riverlife's New CEO, Vivien Li, Sees Opportunities In Pittsburgh's Waterfronts

Riverlife formed in 1999 to plan and manage riverfront revitalization in post-industrial Pittsburgh. Its longtime leader, Lisa Shroeder stepped down in December, and Riverlife recently hired a new President and CEO, Vivien Li.

Li comes from the Boston Harbor Association, where she worked to restore access and vitality to that city’s waterfront. Keystone Crossroads’ Irina Zhorov spoke with Li about what she wants to accomplish in Pittsburgh. 

Li starts at Riverlife October 1, 2015.
