Old bridges to<br />

a new future<br />

Story & Photos // Abby Laub<br />

Three river towns, three sets of hopes and aspirations.<br />

All connected by the Ohio River Greenway, pieced together by railroad bridges.<br />

Community leaders say that completing the nearly 8-mile multi-use trail on the <strong>Indiana</strong> side of the<br />

Ohio River will do wonders for the area’s economy and quality of life.<br />

Ultimately, the goal is to complete a trail that loops through Louisville Metro. While it is all still<br />

a long way of, there is a renewed excitement as the grandiose ramp up to the Big Four Pedestrian<br />

Bridge will very soon connect more than one million people to <strong>Southern</strong> <strong>Indiana</strong> — without a car (or<br />

a swim in the river, if that’s your thing.)<br />
