As for now, the Quinn Street Marina area of Milton is a quiet, relatively undisturbed part of the city, containing an old, out-of-date marina, a few empty lots and a smattering of houses.
But in just a few years, the area could be transformed into a multi-million dollar Blackwater riverfront entertainment district, complete with dining and residences, a walking pathway along the river, public beach space and a completely revitalized, functioning marina.
The Milton City Council is expected to move forward Tuesday with approving a request for proposals that will officially be sent out Wednesday, soliciting ideas and conceptual designs from firms across the country interested in transforming and revitalizing the area of Milton. It s part of a nearly decade-old riverfront redevelopment plan initiated by the city in 2012, said Ed Spears, the director of economic development.
