The Wildlife Overlook Continues to Progress
It is crucial to remember that this is an active
construction site — DO NOT ENTER
|
|
Construction progress continues on the Wildlife Overlook on Stede Bonnet Wynd. While it appears from the road that the project is nearly complete, there are still a number of important items that need to be installed — including signage, retaining walls, steel panels, vegetation and parking — before the Overlook can be opened to members, their guests and the public.
The project’s schedule has been frustratingly delayed this year by barge scheduling, materials shortages and the complexities of construction on BHI. BHA hopes to have the entire project wrapped up in time for the Labor Day weekend, barring any unforeseen challenges. (But, no promises!) Visit BHA’s website HERE for more status updates and photos.
