Abstract
The Midtown North community in Memphis (also known as Hollywood- Springdale) has an abandoned half-mile railroad corridor going through it that could be made into a greenline. Greenlines have many benefits and this community could profit from converting this old rail into a trail. This paper gives the history of greenlines, explains their benefits while presenting a few greenline success stories from around the country, explains the pros and cons of a greenline in Midtown North and outlines the steps that the community could take to make this dream a reality.
