A cyclist rides on the Midtown Greenway in Minneapolis, Minnesota, during autumn. A sign visible on the path reads "ADOPT-A-GREENWAY." The Midtown Greenway is a 5.5-mile multi-use trail constructed on a former railroad corridor, connecting the Mississippi River to the Chain of Lakes. It serves as a key transportation and recreation route for the Twin Cities, maintained by the city and supported by community volunteer programs like Adopt-a-Greenway.
