The Wilmington Waterfront Promenade has been honored with two awards for exceptional open public space design. The Port\u2019s Alameda Corridor Terminus Gap Closure project has been recognized as a top regional transportation improvement project.<\/p><\/div>\n

At its 2023 design awards ceremony last month, the Urban Westside Forum also honored the Wilmington Waterfront Promenade as a project demonstrating excellence in city making and community building. The award was decided by an independent jury from a range of building and architectural disciplines.<\/p>\n

Expected to open in early 2024, the $77.3 million Wilmington Waterfront Promenade project will create a community park adjacent to the Banning\u2019s Landing Community Center, along with a waterfront promenade, public pier, public dock, public restrooms with a green roof, playground and parking lots.<\/p>\n

Creating a \u201cwindow on the waterfront\u201d for the Wilmington community, the nine-acre project also involves the realignment of Water Street, utilities, street work, grading, paving, striping, lighting, landscaping, irrigation, signage, public seating, bike racks and drinking fountains.<\/p>\n

The project was designed in partnership with Sasaki Associates Inc. The Sully-Miller Contracting Company served as the contractor.<\/p>\n

Winner of the American Public Works Association Southern California Chapter B.E.S.T Award for a regional transportation project, the Port\u2019s $17.3 million Alameda Corridor Terminus Gap Closure project was completed in June 2022.<\/p>\n

The project entailed construction and modification of 5,000 feet of mainline railway track, helping to eliminate a gap in rail access between the Port\u2019s West Basin area and the Alameda Corridor, and reduce delays in trains serving several terminals. Griffith Company served as the contractor on the project.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
