Description:
The Irwin Creek and Stewart Creek Greenways cover 2.09 miles of trail alongside their namesake creeks in Charlotte's city center. The Irwin Creek Greenway begins at Ray's Splash Planet and travels through Frazier Park and the Wesley Heights neighborhood. Around I-77, the trail becomes Steward Creek Greenway and continues to the Phillip O. Berry Recreation Center.

The greenways link surrounding neighborhoods to parks with picnic areas, playing fields and playgrounds. They also connect to a designated city bike route at 4th Street, used by many bicycle commuters.

The greenways pass through three tunnels and take in a long line of sycamore trees at Sycamore Street. You can also access the Children's Memorial Walkway and Garden in Frazier Park.

Amenities include Gateway Village, Johnson & Wales University, Ray's Splash Planet (with public art), Frazier Park, Phillip O. Berry Recreation Center and Seversville Park.
