Changes to Seaside Town Center

Is that standing water next to the stage? I thought the major impetus for the project was to solve the drainage issue?

Yes - it rained very hard yesterday morning right before I took that. When everything is finished it is supposed to eliminate most or all of that. Right now there is a lot of silt which has run down to the stage that will be removed. Whatever rain falls into the bowl will still collect there but it should be much less and drain pretty quick.

With the changing of the central plaza in Seaside, I realized it was the demise of the concrete parking pads, and it's doubtful there can ever be another event like the Via Colori. Does anybody have some photos of these events of the past they can share?

Not a pretty sight or pretty site.

Are those palms native to the area?

No!

I sure do miss it! (except for the year it went terribly wrong.) I have some here and there. The reason it stopped at Seaside was because it took over the parking.

From the post by miz notebook, it looks like you'll have to wait until 2030 for the plan to be completed.

Didn't think I had posted on this thread....?

Sorry, miznotebook,I was in error. It was second wind in post #7 who pointed us to the future plans for Seaside. I was just thinking it was you because you are always able to retrieve information for us, and I thank you for that.

Just curious, y'all. When will the food trucks be gone? When will the post office be gone? When will they start demolishing the part of Seaside south of 30A? Let's see, it's all supposed to be finished by 2030. Are they going to drag out the new Seaside construction a little at a time for 16 years so it always is under construction and looks like hell all the time as it does now, or are they going to wait until, say 2025 and just do it all at once? Or something in-between?

Just for the record, we love visiting Seaside. Except during spring break, we are there every day when in town (which is very frequent now that we have a second home in SoWal that is not a rental).

The pavers are about half done and fencing has been moved back on about half the circle so parking is returning. The inside concrete curb on the inside of the palms will get a coral stone cap like is on the stage.

That took, what, 2 years for the stage? Have they perfected the process so it's done sooner?

Yes it was me!

Hi All - new to this forum. Thanks for posting all the photos. Does anyone know the "new" timeline for completion?

Welcome!

The current work will be finished in a week or so - just a guess.

The further evolution of Seaside Town Center is day to day.

Published report WAS March 1, 2014.."Lots of seaside home owners telling renters in Feb. To come on for spring break and enjoy amphitheater
" ready March 1.

Read back to earlier posts. I read that it's an ongoing project that won't be finished until 2030. That is, unless those in control of Seaside have changed developers/whatever after the early plans/dates were posted on this thread.

Things change forever. Our earthly life goes on for a limited amount of time. So roll with it. Now if I were 16 years younger, I might have a different attitude.
