From the Gulf of Mexico to the St Johns River is the Marjorie Harris Carr Cross Florida Greenway., which was once planned to be the Cross Florida Barge Canal. The park is named after the famed environmental activist who opposed the canal and was instrumental in getting it deauthorized. The barge canal was about thirty percent complete when construction ceased. Now it is a 110-mile linear state park.
This week we discuss a few of the notable places along the greenway along with some of the challenges that it still faces.
