Improvements to Mary Ellen Welch Greenway
Mary Ellen Welch Greenway is a pedestrian linear open space connecting Jeffries Point Waterfront to Constitution Beach.
The focus of the renovation will be on the City owned section from Porter Street to Marginal Street with the goal to:
- Reduce storm water and coastal flooding, both near-term and long-term
- Provide cool spots along the greenway to help mitigate the Urban Heat Island
- Promote tree health
We look forward to advancing these goals as we move forward with the design process.
