Waterfront, Parking on Newburyport Mayor’s Agenda

According to the Newburyport Current, new Newburyport Mayor Donna Holaday is looking to begin her term focusing on a few main projects, including the waterfront and parking.
The waterfront is high on the priority list, and Holaday is looking to bring together a group comprised of the city’s senior project manager, Geordie Vining, independent planner Rick Taintor of the Newburyport Redevelopment Authority (NRA) and attorney Mark Guay of the Maritime Society to come up with an executive summary for what she is calling the “Newburyport Maritime Park.”

The proposed park will have an emphasis on the city’s rich maritime history. She said the proposed expansion to the Custom House Maritime Museum and the NRA’s plans for turning its parking lots into a park will be incorporated into one plan.
