A map of the Alewife/Danehy Park area of Cambridge highlighting new off-street bike and pedestrian trail projects in the works. One dotted line represents a path along the north side of the MBTA Fitchburg Line, linking Alewife Stn. in the NW (upper left) to Sherman St. in the east (lower right) alongside several labelled apartment towers, including the Jefferson Park public housing. A second green dashed line represents a new path that would connect Danehy Park to New Street and Concord Avenue (at the bottom edge of the map). Solid green lines near the upper half of the map indicate existing paths in the Minuteman Bikeway and Mass. Central Rail Trail networks.
