Alexander Philliou was honored on April 7 by Tenafly Nature Center for his efforts in initiating the momentum for the Northern Valley Greenway which is a plan to convert a nearly 8-mile-long unused railroad line traversing six Northern Valley towns into a greenway. Alexander was featured in a recent article in the Northern Valley Press. In addition to wanting to provide a safe area for biking and walking, Philliou said that his motivation for undertaking a rails-to-trails project were inspired by his school. “Going to Dwight-Englewood School inspired a sense of community service and activism. We have a duty to improve our communities,” said Philliou. Alexander is currently a sophomore at the University of Miami Business School.
