Ohio River Greenway in the Loop Island Wetlands.

A short while back, I took a walk on the newest Ohio River Greenway section, and provided photos here:

Greenway, 18th St. to Loop Island: Part Two.

Because I had started my walk at 18th Street and doubled back the way I came, I failed to notice that the path was paved into the Loop Island Wetlands, with the pavement ending at the old railway trestle across Silver Creek.

On Sunday, the Confidentials went for a walk, this time choosing to approach from the front of the old Moser Tannery. The squalor pictured above is on the front side of this section of the pathway, and the equally depressing vista below (last photo) on the other side of the trestle.



Here's a final view, looking back at the trestle from a vantage point nearer the river.

The Greenway is supposed to run right through the junkyard to reach a junction with Emory Crossing Road and the linkage with Clarksville. Seeing as that whole area resembles a Superfund site, it should be interesting to see how the final square is circled.
