A tourism project worth a quarter of a million dollars was unveiled Monday in Centennial Park.
Hydro One and the City of Thunder Bay cut the ribbon on a new scenic lookout next to the Current River. Part of the project also included trail improvements, and interpretive signage about Hydro One's forestry management program.
The project was first designated about 13 years years ago, but due to unforeseen challenges it took some time to complete.
With the project finished, the city's parks division will be tasked with maintaining the new trails and look-out area.
Coun. Andrew Foulds says this is part of the Current River Greenway Master Plan.
It will eventually link up with a series of trails along the river.
Foulds says having signage that tells the story of the area helps to make the city parks a richer experience.
