Lafitte Greenway
In the corridor that was once a historic canal vital to the city's transportation system, today this 2.6-mile bike and walking path connects the city from Armstrong Park to City Park. Along the way are green spaces, breakfast stops, community gardens, basketball courts, and playgrounds. The path is lit at night, but is still safest to explore during the day. The trail begins at Basin Street, in the northwest corner of Armstrong Park. On Thursday at 3 pm, there is a farmers' market along the Greenway at 500 N. Norman C. Francis Parkway.
