ABOUT THE PROJECT
Within the Peace River’s watershed, which ultimately drains into Charlotte Harbor’s National Estuary, this waterfront oasis will encompass a diversity of both wetland and upland native habitats and an island amphitheater. All three of Florida’s mangrove trees are found within these tidal wetland communities, providing shelter and sustenance to many aquatic and terrestrial species. Flowering trees and plants will bloom throughout the year and more than 1,500 linear feet of boardwalks will provide optimum viewing of the river and the marsh.
