The Northern Medical Center Greenway serves as the final pedestrian link to connect the hospitals, clinics, and Duke University to the northernmost precinct of the medical center. This section of the greenway re-purposes an abandoned railway corridor and active utility corridor into a vibrant pedestrian space. New pedestrian connections were made to adjacent buildings to provide direct access to this north/south corridor. Careful coordination between hardscape design, planting design, lighting, ADA requirements, and stormwater design allow for connectivity that knit the entire fabric of the University and Medical Center into a walkable pedestrian-oriented campus.
