Chris Blankenship, commissioner of the Alabama Department of Conservation and Natural Resources, speaks at a groundbreaking for an extension of Mobile's Three Mile Creek Greenway on June 22, 2023.Mobile leaders broke ground Thursday on a new section of the Three Mile Creek Greenway, signaling a long-awaited step forward in the construction of a recreational path that will one day link Downtown to the Langan Municipal Park area.
“This trail has been talked about for 35 years, at least,” said Mobile Mayor Sandy Stimpson. He said bringing it to fruition involved a lot of partnerships, such as cooperation with the Alabama Department of Conservation and Natural Resources. The first stretch of path has offered recreational possibilities for runners, walkers and cyclists. “My daughter learned how to ride her bike on the trail,” said District 1 Councilman Cory Penn, who was on hand for Thursday’s event.
Jenn Greene, the city’s director of programs and project management, said that the next section to begin construction will be the westernmost piece, stretching eastward from the Charles Wood Japanese Garden near Langan Park.
