West Ashley Parks and Public Facilities

New public facilities have been built West of the Ashley in recent years, but predominantly in conjunction with new construction on the periphery of the city. This is fine for attracting people to the new neighborhoods in the farthest reaches of the suburbs, but it does nothing for the older West Ashley neighborhoods which have never had these advantages.
We need to go back and right some planning wrongs that have occurred here in the past fifty years.

We have parks, playgrounds, The Bike Path, and the Greenway in the older areas, but how much better would they be if these facilities were interconnected? The city has a perfect opportunity to create synergy from these assets at the Firefighter’s Memorial and the soon to be purchased 1901 Savannah Highway property.
