“Bridgeport’s greatest asset is its 24 miles of waterfront. There are approximately 260 waterfront properties […] out of which approximately 49 % are publicly owned. The Waterfront Plan will provide a framework to guide land use along the city’s entire waterfront in a way that balances the needs of environmentally sensitive areas with economic development opportunities and provides openings for public access and open space… [The Plan] will promote a bold rethinking of the city’s water’s edge.”
- Office of Planning and Economic Development

Technology Park and the Remington site.”
“Everyone loves Seaside Park, but what about neighborhood
water access?”

Moving Forward Beyond Documentation
• 24 miles is a lot of shoreline…where are the best opportunities for waterfront change?
• How can we build on existing momentum?• What does an analysis of the market tell us about feasibility and
incentives needed?• What elements of an overall framework for the waterfront will
be most important to success?

We will be Looking at Opportunity Areas
• Site control• Open space • Community waterfront access• Critical mass to build on existing momentum• Level of brownfield remediation required

Question #1
What’s missing from the map? Mark with X’s!
Think about:• activities (permanent or temporary)• Destinations (public spaces, major
businesses, community organizations, etc.)• Waterfront locations, connections and
activities
![Page 50: Bridgeport Comprehensive Waterfront Plan 2nd Launch –Neighborhood Meeting 3/9/16 · 2016-03-11 · Continuing/expanding conversations of RBD Phase 1, working w/waterfront team to](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022011908/5f566668f370e34e603c7f03/html5/thumbnails/50.jpg)
Question #2
In the short term, can you think of a temporary or pop-up use along the waterfront?
Where would you locate it? (Mark with circles.)
What neighborhood groups, institutions, businesses could work toward recruiting this use/setting this up, and managing it day to day, week to week, or simply one time?
