Although it may not boast the same level of grandeur as the St. Pete Pier, it certainly serves its purpose well. Thanks to the support of a federal grant and a tax initiative approved by voters, Fort De Soto’s enhanced pier is set to make its long-awaited debut to the public next week.
The renowned Pinellas County park will play host to a ribbon-cutting ceremony in honor of the new Bay Pier at 11 a.m. on Thursday, September 28. Joining in the celebration will be Paul Cozzie, the Director of Parks & Conservation Resources, and Janet C. Long, Chair of the Board of County Commissioners.
