Concord River Greenway

The Lowell Parks & Conservation Trust (LP&CT),  in cooperation with the City of Lowell and various funders and partners, is currently constructing a Greenway along the east bank of the Concord River in Lowell, a 1.75 mile stretch from the Lawrence Street Bridge to the confluence with the Merrimack.  Building on this initiative, University of Massachusetts Lowell (UML) faculty, as well as staff at the LP&CT, Tsongas Industrial History Center (TIHC), and Lowell National Historical Park (LNHP), are creating resources to enhance use of the Greenway by the general public as well as a targeted audience of local students and teachers.  A documentary film outlining the history of the Greenway and an historic tour of the area will be central components of this exciting initiative. This work, in line with Lowell’s planned redevelopment around study of its past and emphasis on its rich culture, will make a permanent and lasting contribution to the city by increasing visitation and improving the quality of those outings.
