Capital Cascade Greenway

The Capital Cascade Greenway was borne of Tallahassee's Blueprint 2000, an initiative to provide efficient, attractive, environmentally responsible stormwater, trail and road projects that help revitalize in-town and southside neighborhoods.

The greenway will address stormwater and flooding problems in southern Tallahassee where the St. Augustine Branch basin slopes steeply near downtown.

Almost the whole basin is built upon which has increased the amount of impervious surfaces leaving no absorption area for rain.

The greenway will also have parks and playgrounds, businesses and shops and an opportunity to preserve a historic section of Florida's capital city.

Parts of the corridor house the Korean War Memorial as well as historic plaques that commemorate the beginnings of Tallahassee and the State of Florida.
