Town Center Phase 2 Project
The Town Center Phase 2 Project, underway since April 2022, builds off the success of the lakefront promenade and docks (Phase 1), providing greater use of the amphitheater by expanding the overall grass and seating area for events. Additional improvements to the site include:
- Designated food truck parking area
- Gateway Plaza with seating, sun sails, and brick pavers
- Holiday display area
- Improved parking near the existing Wellington Community Center
- Picnic pavilions
- Portable restroom area
Town Center Drive was also relocated to minimize pedestrian crossing and prioritize pedestrian safety.
