Redesigning the waterfront area of Jamestown would provide improved public access, parking and views to the water. The improvements that facilitate these goals include the construction of a formalized boardwalk a small park area and public dock. The dock is multipurpose, providing both easy public access to the water for swimming, as well as a harbor location for dinghies used to reach the larger moored sailing boats. Additional improvements include redesigning the parking area along the waterfront south of the marina. This will provide additional parking options for residents, patrons and employees of Naragansett Avenue.

Furthermore, the East Ferry Commercial Building is being designed to provide additional housing on an added second floor. Also, the parking area adjacent to this building will be reconfigured to provide more integrated public green at the end of Narragansett Avenue without compromising the much-needed parking in this area.

Overall, the redesigned waterfront would provide improved access to the water for the residents and visitors of Jamestown. We are looking for your ideas and comments on this proposal. Please comment below or come visit us at the studio in Town Hall.
