Greenways for Nashville works in partnership with the Metro Parks Department's Greenways Commission.
Greenways are an important quality of life asset for any community.
They offer natural open space for retreat and renewal, as well as multi-use trails for walking, biking, and skating. By locating the trails in Nashville's floodplain, greenways help preserve wildlife habitat, reduce flood impact, and ensure clean drinking water. We are delighted by a recent pledge of private funding to Greenways for Nashville from Rogers Group, a company headquartered in Metro Center. Rogers' corporate office backs up to the Metro Center Greenway, an important link in our countywide system. Concept plans identify potential greenway routes connecting neighborhoods, businesses, parks and other points of interest in ways that balance the community's need for recreation, alternative transportation, and conservation.
