The Towpath Trail's path through the shopping center provides a continuous route with views to the industrial valley along the eastern property line and includes tunnels under Steelyard Drive and Quigley Avenue. In addition, a similar trail through the middle of the shopping center along the east side of Steelyard Drive provides Towpath users access to the center's amenities. The route along Steelyard Drive passes restaurants and connects via sidewalks to shops on both sides of the street, with bike racks and directional signage located along the trail.
