Millrace/Amazon slough - 32 years later and no progress made

In June of 1990 the Hult Center had a full scale city model that showed how the City could leverage the existing waterways that run throughout the city. I loved the idea of embracing our Pioneer/Lumber heritage with the Millrace and getting moving water back through campus/riverfront again. Doing something similar with the Amazon Slough would help move water through what is otherwise a stagnant and almost hidden waterway. Putting walking or biking trails along the millrace and slough would provide people more access to businesses and more exercise options for midtown/downtown workers all bringing a better sense of community to these parts of Eugene. If we want to connect the river, campus, and downtown, we should extend that a bit further to include the Millrace and Amazon slough.
