ReliantSouth Construction Group recently served as the Construction Manager on the Island View Park Project located in Franklin County. The 7.13 acre park is located approximately one (1) mile east of the City of Carrabelle. The property is divided by U.S. 98, a state-designated Big Bend Scenic Byway, with an inland northwestern parcel that is 4.0 acres and a waterfront southeastern parcel that is 3.13 acres. The waterfront parcel of the property includes 884 linear feet of frontage along St. George Sound. The project included construction of a public park on the waterfront southeastern parcel to enhance the public’s access to the surrounding natural resources and to increase recreational opportunities. The park infrastructure includes an accessible boardwalk with decks that connect the two existing piers, restored and improved existing piers, shoreline access for paddle craft, a central plaza with an informational kiosk, a pervious concrete parking area for visitors, and a turn lane for park access.
