The Grand Concourse is an integrated walkway system for the cities of St. John's and Mount Pearl and the town of Paradise in the province of Newfoundland and Labrador.
It has over 120 kilometers (75 mi) of walkways linking every major park, river, pond, and green space in the three municipalities. The Grand Concourse was first developed through the generosity of the Johnson Family Foundation with Paul Johnson as its president and founder.
Famous quotes containing the word grand:
“It has been said that the immortality of the soul is a “grand peut-être”Mbut still it is a grand one. Everybody clings to it—the stupidest, and dullest, and wickedest of human bipeds is still persuaded that he is immortal.”
—George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)
