Bridge Plaza land purchase for Port District
Summary
The lease amendment keeps the multi-venue food garden at the Port District on track — up to 15,000 square feet of restaurants. Construction wraps in May 2027, with an opening targeted for fall 2027. The city is also upsizing the lift station to 550-seat capacity so the park's growth isn't constrained.
