The Gallup (N.M.) Independent has an interesting story about Riverwalk in the nearby Route 66 town of Grants, N.M.
San Antonio has the best-known Riverwalk; it appears Grants decided to have one of its own.
The Riverwalk in Grants is a greenbelt along the Rio San Jose that in the midst of a three-stage development. It contains sculptures, a playground, benches, a gazebo and an amphitheatre on one end. Just off the Riverwalk on Route 66 is the Uranium Cafe.
It sounds like the sleepy little town is doing a good job taking advantage of its natural assets.
