The Downtown Greenway is a planned 4 mile walking and biking trail that will loop around downtown Greensboro, and will enhance the urban landscape with a green space that will promote fitness, encourage alternative transportation, provide connectedness and well-being for our residents and visitors in an aesthetically pleasing environment. The loop itself provides a unique opportunity for Greensboro to have the only one of its kind in the state and one of the few in the country. In addition, with the connections to the extensive existing and planned trails systems in the city and the county, this loop will connect residents from all parts of the community and beyond.

Public Art

Art can be transformative and functional.  Public art will be a significant feature along the Downtown Greenway, including functional pieces such as benches, bike racks, trash cans, and signage, as well as pieces for historical and inspirational purposes. Pieces commissioned from local and national artists will be featured significantly along the trail.  2 pieces have been commissioned and installed and 2 more are in production.  Learn more.
