Cherry Grove Public Parking Lot Restrooms

Moving Overhead Utilities Underground

The City’s program of placing above- ground utilities underground has resumed with the construction on North Ocean Boulevard between 29th Avenue North and 34th Avenue North. Work began in November 2023 and paused mid-May 2024 for the summer season. This project has reached 50% completion, with most underground conduits and vaults installed. The next phase will consist of utility company installation of their wires and equipment. The anticipated completion is Fall 2025. This project consists of converting overhead electrical and communications wiring to an underground conduit system; then, removing the overhead wiring and power poles. Similar conversion projects have been accomplished throughout the City with positive results. Please be advised, drivers may experience delays, lane closures, and detours as the project progresses along North Ocean Boulevard from 29th Avenue North to 34th Avenue North. The City has initiated design for an additional segment, extending this project from 34th Avenue North to 39th Avenue North, with construction to follow in late 2025.

The Cherry Grove Public Parking Lot Restrooms, located near 62nd Avenue North, are nearing completion. These public restrooms will be similar to the public restrooms at Shorehaven Drive and 21st Avenue South. The anticipated completion date is mid- October, weather dependent. McLean Park Restrooms The final touches are being done at the McLean Park Restrooms! The anticipated completion date is early October. The new restroom structure features four standard restrooms and one handicap accessible restroom. For comparison, these restrooms are similar to the oceanfront public restrooms at 39th Avenue South.
