Draft Project Vision
The Danehy-New Street Connector Path will:
- Provide a new community corridor which will become an important, accessible link for people walking, bicycling, and rolling, connecting the North Cambridge neighborhood to the Alewife area and valuable open spaces such as Danehy Park, Fresh Pond, and the Watertown-Cambridge Greenway multi-use path
- Be set in an ecologically improved, naturally resilient, green, landscaped area that will use native plantings to create natural habitat
- Consider future connections to nearby destinations and neighborhoods, and will incorporate site amenities to make it possible to pass through and pause within a comfortable, calm, and natural setting
- Create an accommodating path space for users of all ages and abilities
We encourage you to give us your feedback on the draft vision above.
What is a project vision?
A vision is a broad statement about the goals of a project. Project goals are general statements about what path users and neighbors hope to achieve with the completed multi-use path project.
How did we craft the vision?
We received hundreds of survey responses, comments at in-person events, and additional feedback during remote meetings. This feedback has helped shape the draft vision.
