About the 27th St. R.O.W

The 27th St. is an undeveloped Right of Way located between Durbin Dr. and Douglas Ave. in the Happy Valley Neighborhood. The Right of Way is a citizen led project and green space creation with a connector trail. It is open to the public and maintained by the neighborhood. It has been planted with native conifers and understory plants. It is a well used path and accessible green space for the community.

Sponsored in part by a 2024 Small & Simple grant from the City of Bellingham.
