First Creek Greenway is located between Glenwood Avenue and Broadway.
The greenway is located parallel to First Creek in the 20 acre First
Creek Park. The greenway has a small loop trail in the bend of the
creek located in the middle of the park. There is a passive green
space in the interior of the loop. Plans for this greenway to connect
south underneath I-40 to Caswell Park are under way. The connection portion
of this trail will be built in the near future.
