Gateway Park
The new Gateway Park will be constructed on Riverside Drive at the Pearson Bridge, where a sign currently marks the nearby OM Sanctuary – which donated the parcel to RiverLink in 2011. With meandering pathways and native plantings, arched gateways at both entrances and a carousel-inspired pavilion, the new park will resurrect a smaller version of the historic Riverside Park found at this location in the early 20th Century. Gateway Park will provide a natural respite designed to serve cyclists, runners, and pedestrians along the French Broad River. Read More
