A resident-driven pocket park on Barber Street across from where Boulevard dead-ends got a big boost last week. The Riverview Foundation, a Chattanooga, TN-based nonprofit that funds land trust acquisitions and educational and cultural activities, has donated $75,000 to fund construction of Boulevard Woods.
The two-acre passive park on donated land won Mayor and Commission approval last July, but plans will need to be approved again before moving forward. More money will need to be raised, too, but it's still great news.
