Court Plaza

Coming next year, in 2026, the empty space of asphalt between Main Street and Resort Street will be transformed into a community gathering space with seating walls, shade trees, benches, and an even surface to host events! BCD and the City have partnered to raise the $1.3 million needed to complete the Plaza. For more info on Court Plaza, go to this page here.
