Port Orange Riverwalk Breaks Ground

The much anticipated Port Orange Riverwalk project has finally broken ground along the banks of the Halifax River. This week, the first phase of construction began that includes a canoe and kayak launch, a trail head facility with restrooms, a boardwalk and renovations on an existing pier. The remaining phases of the project will include more dining options as well as condominium buildings. There have been official plans for a river walk project dating back nearly twenty years and finally this long-discussed addition is coming to Port Orange. The current portion is expected to be completed in December with other portions of the Port Orange Riverwalk beginning construction later this year. This should be an excellent development for Port Orange, offering residents more things to do and increasing the eye-appeal and property values along Ridgewood Avenue. What shops, restaurants or entertainment options would you like to see in the Port Orange Riverwalk?
