The Canarsie West Trail Connector – a new bike path that connects Canarsie to the Jamaica Bay Greenway – is now open! In collaboration with the NYC Parks Department, we designed this multi-use greenway path along the southwestern edge of Canarsie Park. The greenway is for pedestrians and bicyclists, and includes seating areas and native plantings. The trail connects the bicycle path on Paerdegat Avenue to Canarsie Park (which boasts a skate park, cricket field, wetland, and plenty of seating and shade) and the Jamaica Bay Greenway. The greenway trail is part of a larger landscape restoration along the Belt Parkway and Jamaica Bay which included the planting of more than 4,000 native trees.
