Starlight Park, Phase II

This project included closing a crucial 2/3-mile gap from Starlight Park to Westchester Ave in the South Bronx to ensure safe, continuous travel along the Greenway and provide park and river access to over 400,000 Bronx residents and employees. The creation of this link was vital to the overall success of the Greenway. Once opened, nearby neighborhoods would no longer remain cut off from the river or from the new parks and playgrounds along its banks, and greenway travelers will enjoy a safe, continuous north-south route through the Bronx.
