On the Reedy
By Linda Tancs
It might be hard to believe that the beautiful waterfalls and gardens at Falls Park on the Reedy were once covered by a four-lane highway. Located in Greenville, South Carolina, it’s the locals’ downtown park. The falls are revealed by the 345-foot-long Liberty Bridge that spans the Reedy River. Described as “floating on air,” its spectacular curvature is rivaled only by its unique construction—a concrete, reinforced deck supported by just a single suspension cable. The park is popular with visitors, who rank it among the likes of New York’s Central Park and San Francisco’s Golden Gate Park. Open daily, there’s no admission fee.
