Preserve

We advocate for projects and policies that sustain and improve the infrastructure and connections within the National Heritage Area. Canalway played a major role in the creation of the Towpath Trail and is currently working with community leaders on planned improvements for Canal Basin Park.

We collaborate with public, private and non-profit partners to provide access to premier natural and cultural experiences to help people discover an authentic sense of self, community and place. This work includes leading the effort on interpretive projects, fundraising for public spaces and supporting the establishment of historic districts to recognize and preserve neighborhoods’ architectural heritage for future generations.
