What are the major elements of the Scioto Mile?
The two major elements of the Scioto Mile are the Promenade and the renovated Bicentennial Park. The Promenade on the Scioto Mile is a grand boardwalk and green corridor that stretches along Civic Center Drive from Broad Street to Rich Street. It connects Battelle Riverfront Park with the John W. Galbreath Bicentennial Park. The Promenade includes a series of water features in which visitors can interact with bronze fountain sculptures or rest and dip their feet in the cool, moving water of a canal. The Promenade will also feature a stone colonnade with benches, swings, gardens, and card and chess tables. The John W. Galbreath Bicentennial Park, a 4.7-acre area, will feature a stunning 15,000-square-foot water fountain, casual dining cafe and eye-catching bandshell.
