Walkway Over the Hudson purchased the Poughkeepsie railroad bridge 20 years ago with a future in mind. Opening the bridge in 2009 was just the first step.
Our members share a vision for an extraordinary place. Working together, we can build:
- An outdoor amphitheater for community performances
- A 21-story, glass-encased elevator connecting Walkway to a lush, riverfront park
- A Welcome Center to share our rich, Hudson Valley history
- A new trail integrating the Walkway with the vibrant and expanding Rail Trail system
And every dollar you give to Walkway gets something very real in return:
- Programming for our community, students, seniors and the mobility impaired... a $100 membership funds a local elementary school field trip to the Walkway
- Recruitment and training of Park Volunteers and Ambassadors... a $500 membership helps cover costs for Friday night late openings
- Purchasing American flags and Walkway banners... a $1,000 membership covers flag replacement costs for one year
