  1. Correction: Dave Haddy was appointed to Represent JACC at the Twin Cities Greenways.

    Twin Cities Greenways is a grassroots effort promoting the construction of greenway-quality trails to better connect the Twin Cities area. Our proposal is inspired by the tremendous success of the Midtown Greenway, and incorporates a street-to-park conversion similar to Milwaukee Avenue. Our greenway design would enable the creation of linear parks that transform streets into community assets and improve access to existing parks and trails. For more detail on the basic concept, check out the “What is a Greenway?” page of the website.
