Another major project in the works will be a new roadway corridor connecting Galleria Parkway to Popps Ferry Road. The Ladner Road project alignment is currently being evaluated for environmental review and efforts are underway to secure the needed right of way. The estimated project cost is approximately $10 million dollars, and upon completion of this roadway, will be a major catalyst in supporting the full development of this Interstate quadrant.
Furthermore, an exciting venture in D’Iberville will be the development of the Waterfront Marina and Commercial Seafood Harbor planned to be built adjacent to the existing
1-110 Marina. To date, the city has received nearly $15 million dollars in funding towards the estimated project cost of $25 million dollars. With a breakwater, new marina slips, shoreline bulkhead, an event center and courtyard, the opportunities are endless! Our vision is to create an atmosphere and place to gather to enjoy this natural resource of the Back Bay. Future plans will expand the waterfront development all the way to our crown jewel, the Scarlet Pearl.
