Metro Parks celebrates Gulch Greenway Ribbon Cutting

On Thursday, August 4, 2022, Metro Parks and Greenways for Nashville celebrated the ribbon cutting of the redesigned Gulch Greenway opening 1,400 feet of a new linear park to the public.

“Greenways build communities,” said Mayor John Cooper. “Whether it’s space for running or biking or the outdoor gym locations, the greenways support the physical and mental health of everyone who uses them. Preserving our environment requires intention and thoughtful stewardship, like this one embodies, and it’s an enormous part of how we make Nashville work for everyone.”

“We are quite fortunate to have greenways in our urban and downtown districts, and this greenway is indicative of our intent to meet the demand for service and provide the best recreational opportunities for everyone,” said Metro Parks Director Monique Horton Odom.

This 1/4 mile segment of the broader Gulch Greenway integrated with Asurion's Gulch Hub exemplifies a successful public-private partnership between Metro and Highwoods Properties who funded and constructed the realignment and extension of the greenway trail.

HASTINGS was proud to partner with Metro Parks, Greenways for Nashville, Highwoods Properties, Asurion, Hawkins Partners, Brasfield & Gorrie and I Saw The Sign on the design and construction of this linear park.
