The North Shore Greenway is a long sought concept for a bicycle/ pedestrian
pathway extending across the North Shore waterfront from the Verrazzano Bridge
on the east side to the Goethals Bridge on the west side. It would be comparable
to Manhattan's Hudson River Greenway. Portions of the greenway already exist-
Faber Park, Heritage Park and the coming "Van Pelt/ Van Name Waterfront Plaza"
on the west side as well as the Stapleton Waterfront Plaza and the Promenade at
Lighthouse Point on the east side- but they are trying to get the Department of
Transportation to commit to finishing the greenway.
On Monday, May 20th, the Transportation Alternatives and the Harbor Ring Committee are hosting a press conference regarding the
North Shore Greenway in order to announce the release of a brand new mini report
documenting public support for the concept while calling on the DOT to commit to
its completion.
Please join them on May 20th at 9:30 am and support the North Shore Greenway!
