August 21, 2020

Construction continues this week on Lake Street, with some recent reopenings and amenities made accessible. The Broadway Plaza near COV is now open to the public, allowing access to the 600 block businesses for boaters. Additionally, the bike trail and sidewalk from Barry Avenue to Ferndale Road are now open. 

Crews have begun to work on the landscaping and finishing design touches on Lake Street and Lake Street Plaza, including the exterior of the public restroom facilities. The need for these facilities were identified during the 10-year public engagement process that has resulted in Panoway on Wayzata Bay. Currently, residents and visitors do not have any easily accessible restroom options and must rely on businesses and restaurants. To alleviate this burden on downtown businesses, a two-stall unisex public restroom was included in the Panoway construction plans. 

Check out the video below to learn more about this work and get a look at what the public restroom facilities will look like when complete.
