THE NIAGARA RIVER GREENWAY
The Niagara River Greenway Staff and Commissioners work to fulfill the Niagara River Greenway Plan through review of proposed projects, stewardship programs, community events, collaboration with municipalities and organizational partners. Our goal is to create a world class trail and greenspace network within the Niagara River corridor that communities can be proud of and cherish for generations to come.

Art Mural Arrives in Academy Park!
We recently cut the ribbon on the long awaited public art piece in the Village of Lewiston. Local artists Maureen Kellick and Dan Buttery were the master minds behind this unique piece that combines three dimensional sculpture with scenic painting. This creative piece is calling all visitors to take a selfie! You can see it for yourself at Academy Park on Center St. in Lewison.
New Viewing Opportunites at Aqua Lane Park!
You can now get a more up close view of the wildlife that visits the archipelago in the Niagara River, thanks to Kenmore West High School, the Town of Tonawanda, the Rotary Club of Kenmore, local environmental experts, a talented graphic artist, and the Tonawanda Community Environmental Benefit fund. Aqua Lane Park is the only publicly accessible waterfront in the Town of Tonawanda and is off of River Rd at the foot of Sheridan, go visit!
