Additional Property Attributes

The subject property at the 300 Block of West Main Street, Pensacola, Florida consists of a 35-acre submerged parcel adjacent to the south side of the Community Maritime Park (CMP), an Urban Land Institute Award fo Excellence winning development that includes a baseball stadium, amphitheater, event space, and as retail, office, and dining. In the early 1900s, the property was used for petroleum storage, maintenance, and rail lines servicing four industrial piers. The piers fell out of use, and in 1966 the last and largest was detroyed by fire. In the 55 year since, remaining debris has made the waters off the CMP un-navigable, and chemically treated pilings have leached SVOCs into sediment. With removal of 111 tons of chemically treated and steel pilings jutting just above the water's surface and littering the sea floor, the waterfront of the CMP can now be returned to use by the community.

Former Use: The subject property at the 300 Block of West Main Street, Pensacola, Florida consists of a 35-acre submerged parcel adjacent to the south side of the Community Maritime Park (CMP). According to historical records and news accounts, commercial piers constructed of coal-tar creosote-treated pilings began in the area around 1905. The 1940 and 1955 aerial photographs show four pier structures extending from land, across the parcel into Pensacola Bay. The pier furthest to the east [Area of Concern (AOC) No. 1] serviced a Standard Oil bulk storage terminal, while Pier No. 1 (AOC No. 2), Pier No. 2 (AOC No. 3), and Pier No. 3 (AOC No. 4) were commercial piers. Eventually the piers fell out of use as the port to the east was improved and expanded. In 1955, the City of Pensacola purchased Pier No. 2, the Frisco Pier, from the St Louis-San Francisco Railway Company. The 1965 aerial photograph shows only Pier Nos. 2 and 4 remaining. In 1966, Pier No. 2 burned and was never re-built. The 1974 and 1979 aerial photographs show only the remains of Pier Nos. 2 and 4. Currently most pilings are either gone or broken off below the water surface creating a navigation hazard.
