The High Line Canal - Lee Gulch Amenity Area Improvement Project is planned in concert with the High Line Canal Conservancy to implement objectives and goals of the High Line Canal Vision Plan. The project at the intersection of the High Line Canal Trail and Lee Gulch Trail aims to enhance trail user experience, provide amenities and educational opportunities for the community, and preserve historic and natural resources along the canal. The improvements include an improved trail intersection, boulder scramble, boulder terrace seating, overlook with benches, and interpretive signage and log stump steppers. Construction will take place May through July 2024, and trail closures on portions of both the High Line Canal Trail and Lee Gulch Trail between Broadway and W. Fremont Avenue will occur.

    As of this afternoon, Wednesday July 17, the contractor has removed construction fencing and trail closures from the project site and the trail has been reopened for trail users. The contractor still has some minor site cleanup, seeding and erosion blanket installation to complete through Friday July 19, however those construction operations will not impede trail usage.

    The contractor is moving along quickly on the construction of the boulder scramble and we think it looks great! The scramble features and centralized boulder "staircase" which is flanked by larger boulders that can be used as seating for a rest in the shade or playful rock scrambling. Remaining work is still on schedule to be completed around July 15.

    As of May 15, 2024, the contractor has closed the project site and provided trail closures as shown on the project trail closure and detour map. Work will begin slowly at the project site while the contractor prepares to begin, but will ramp up rapidly in the coming week. We are excited to see this project start to take shape.
