Ruminations of several destinations have circulated for many years and specifically I am curious about the Grand Paseo /a/k/a/ Artist Walk connecting Riverside Arts Market to Riverside Park below I-95.

Could someone please provide details and possibly any renderings of the finished product?

As a lifelong resident of this uniquely great neighborhood, I am anxiously excited about all of the work that has been delivered for our enjoyment.

The Sustainable Dog Park, the connection it will provide by way of a new walkway through Riversde Park connecting Silvertown to the Artist Walk, the possible Riverwalk extension to the Cummer Gardens, and perhaps beyond to Beacon Riverside at 555 Bishop Gate Ln, or maybe Memorial Park, are all wonderful talking points!
All of the above can only help old Annie (public school #4)

It may be a struggle to bring the Northbank Riverwalk all the way to St.Vincents but it would certainly be excellent for residents to access the facility from the foot of King St.!

On the east end, I have always wondered how far away we are from enjoying the extension to Metropolitan Park?
Physically, the structure is so close but only SEEMS so far away.

Thoughts?
Answers?

This is one of our River City's best places to exercise and enjoy doing so outdoors of the urban core.

I for one will very much appreciate any shared enthusiasm related to extending the Norhtbank Riverwalk to the ship yards, Hogans Creek Greenway, Met park, St.Vincents at King Street and would like to form the proper no profit depository where we can park our donations for the cause and allow them to grow and mature.

If you are of like mind, dream with me and let's pool the funds and search for grants!

Who's in?
