Daytona Beach leaders focused on parks, affordable housing and art


DAYTONA BEACH — When the completely reinvented Riverfront Park opens early next year, the public green space is going to look dramatically different.
One impossible-to-miss change will be fencing wrapping around the park, a $1.5 million addition to the overhaul project made to enable the park to close every night and not reopen until the sun comes up each morning.
That was just one change mentioned during Wednesday night's City Commission meeting during a discussion of amendments to the lease agreement between the city and the private foundation that will run Riverfront Park.
During the meeting commissioners also decided to have a trail that runs through the city-owned park along the Halifax River controlled by the Brown Riverfront Esplanade Foundation.

Daytona Beach's Riverfront Park undergoing full transformation


DAYTONA BEACH — If you've been in COVID-19 hibernation and haven't come out much over the past year, you're going to find part of the downtown riverfront almost unrecognizable.
The northern end of the park that runs along the western bank of the Halifax River has been undergoing a $25 million transformation over the past 10 months, and the recreational space is starting to offer glimpses of the esplanade it will become. Dozens of replanted mature trees are settling into their new home, sprawling retention ponds are being carved out, and berms are turning the once-flat expanse into artful waves of rolling land.
