5th Avenue Greenway

The 5th Ave Greenway was constructed from the fall of 2010 through the spring of 2011. The greenway narrows 5th Ave to calm traffic. A wide pedestrian path was installed on the west side of the road and runs from Lee Street to Linden Street. The greenway and chicanes allow stormwater to flow in and feed the native vegetation that has been planted. On the north side of the Bronx Wash there is a path called the Mansfield Park Corridor that connects pedestrians to Mansfield Park. The last step in completing the greenway will be a pedestrian bridge that connects the greenway to the walking path.
