The nature park will include walking, birding and wildlife trails along which native plants will thrive and nesting sites be established. The museum will be devoted to the preservation of our County's vast maritime history and will provide educational experiences related to the maritime industry. Both the museum and the park will be a place to study, to learn, and also to relax and enjoy the tranquility of this area."
