You can enjoy a walk across the river in all directions, park benches are included to sit and watch the sunset or your Grandkids play. The second is Dow Gardens which you can go for a stroll through the grounds, the location is on the South side of the Midland Center for the Arts on Eastman Avenue. During the Christmas season they have walks with Luminarias and Carolers. To be continued . . .
