New Fort Pierce Marina Opens

A dozen years after Hurricanes Frances and Jeanne damaged and destroyed slips in the municipal marina in Fort Pierce, Fla., the city completed its $31 million renovation and reopened the marina in late June.The resulting project includes 13 barrier islands to protect the marina and shore from storm surge, a floating wave attenuator in the outer basin, the addition of 137 wet slips to the marina, and a public-access area on the waterfront.
