Manhattan Waterfront Greenway Study

BBB led a multi-disciplinary design and engineering team for a study to jump-start the completion of the Manhattan Waterfront Greenway, the most used bike path in the United States. Closing the 32-mile loop along five miles of missing connections, the team developed viable alignments through physical and regulatory challenges, supported by preliminary permitting discussions and cost estimates. Seven sites around Manhattan's perimeter—including the Lower East Side, East Midtown, Harlem, Inwood, and Fort Washington—will promote waterfront access linking more than 1,000 acres of open space across the island. The completed Greenway will provide an important recreational amenity and transit route for some of Manhattan's most underserved neighborhoods and provide a greener, more resilient edge to the island.
