Option B: Hogan Creek Greenway Corridor<br />
Springfield could also be connected to the Riverwalk by<br />
following the course of Hogan Creek southeasterly toward<br />
the river (Figure 42). A bike trail could extend through the<br />
Greenway from the intersection of First Street and<br />
Boulevard Street. This trail would parallel the north bank of<br />
the creek as it crosses N. Laura Street and N. Main Street,<br />
and enters Confederate Park. While there is also space<br />
FIGURE 42 Option B,<br />
available on the south bank of the creek most of the way,<br />
overall alignment.<br />
the presence of a private parcel at 937 Main St (between<br />
Orange St. and the south bank of the creek) makes the north bank more practical<br />
through this stretch.<br />
Once in Confederate Park, the trail would<br />
cross the existing pedestrian bridge that<br />
lies just north of the terminus of Ocean<br />
Street, and then follow the south bank of<br />
the creek as it crosses Hubbard, Market<br />
and Liberty Streets. All of the property<br />
along this section of the corridor is city<br />
property, with the most significant<br />
obstacles being the fenced-off parking lot<br />
of the Department of Parks, Recreation<br />

and Entertainment in the old armory at<br />
851 N. Market Street (Figure 43), and the box-culvert bridge that carries Liberty Street<br />
over the creek.
