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.
