~ Tacoma, WA- The City of Tacoma is excited to announce the opening of the highly anticipated J Street Neighborhood Greenway on Thursday, September 4, 2025. Located at Edna Travis Park on 2301 South J Street, the greenway aims to improve safety and accessibility for community members traveling by foot, bike, or other means of transportation.

The grand opening celebration will kick off at 5:30 p.m. with a slow-paced, family-friendly bike ride along J Street. Led by 2nd Cycle Tacoma, this ride will give participants a chance to experience the greenway firsthand. At 6 p.m., a unique ribbon-cutting ceremony will take place where participants will ride through streamers instead of the traditional ribbon.
