We have begun work on our ambitious capital program, bringing the Island’s infrastructure into the 21st century and building the new park and public spaces. Nowhere is the construction more evident right now than at Soissons Landing. When visitors arrive this summer, they will notice the change. They will see a more open area and an lovely, unobstructed view of Fort Jay. And Soissons Landing will be even better next year. When construction is complete, the entire area will be a new, welcoming gateway.
