A new city park is taking root beneath the Fuller Warren Bridge in Riverside that will become part of the multi-use Emerald Trail as well as expand the popular Riverside Arts Market.

Artist Walk is a linear park that will extend from the current market site to Riverside Park in Five Points.

Design development work is complete for Artist Walk, which will expand the arts market and include an artistic skateboard park, said Daryl Joseph, director of the city's Parks, Recreation and Community Services, in an email to the Times-Union.
