The Lowell National Historical Park's Northern Canal Walkway reopened this week after a brief closure for brush cutting along the path. The walkway, which begins on the O'Donnell Bridge on School Street, is only open during limited daylight hours in the warmer months, and when river flow rates are low enough. The walkway, which runs between the Northern Canal and the Merrimack River, crosses the 36-foot-high "Great River Wall," finished in 1847 to create part of the Northern Canal. The huge natural stones used to construct the wall create part of the walkway.
