Major redevelopment plans have been revealed by Niagara Parks.
Niagara Parks will be entirely redeveloping its marina property along the south Niagara Parkway in the Town of Fort Erie over the next three years, with an investment of $19 million from its earned revenue.
The redevelopment plans include substantial upgrades to the site, increasing the number of dock slips to over 200, while also expanding public use of the marina through amenities such as a new restaurant and outdoor patio space, retail store, new public washrooms, areas for fishing, a new public boat launch and recreational public space throughout the waterfront area. The plans will also include infrastructure to support fishing charters and excursions.
A Request for Proposals for the design-build of the new marina is being issued, with Niagara Parks remaining the owner and operator of the site. Officials also add a key component of the redevelopment will be public consultation to gain feedback from existing slipholders and the local community.
The only marina on the Canadian side of the upper Niagara River, 22 kilometres south of the Canadian Horseshoe Falls, this prime waterfront property along the south Niagara Parkway has been owned and operated by Niagara Parks since the 1960s.
