Talking with Get The Coast, City Manager Michael Beedie said,

“The Landing renovation has been a long time coming and I hope the community is as excited as I am about the bright future of this park. We are looking forward to this transformation the city’s most visited park will see over the next 12-18 months. It is going to be something truly spectacular and hopefully be the catalyst for more revitalization in downtown.”
