Highpoint Park, the Drive, the Boulevard: part 2


Aerial view looking south toward Highpoint Park and the North Bay skyline. The Communication tower and observatory are visible on the right.

Finally started adding sidewalks to the “Drive”. Like the “Boulevard”, the drive creates a string of parks; it is optimized for biking, jogging and walking.

The drive is a primary gateway from the north.

Approaching the roundabout at the point. This is where a bridge connects the Drive to the other side of the river.

This road in Highpoint Park leads to the observatory.

In the cove. We need some sailboats.

This is where the Drive meets Inner Harbor road and the Boulevard. Inner Harbor road is straight ahead; it eventually runs along the Inner Harbor area and Marina District. The Drive/Boulevard greenway veers to the right.

Looking south down the northern stretch of the Boulevard.
