Local St. Petersburg resident, Gary Harrington, wrote a letter to the editor of the Tampa Bay Times titled Best of Both Worlds supporting W's Blue Pier concept. Mr. Harrington wrote, “As a longtime visitor to Weedon Island Preserve, I am instantly a fan of the 'Blue Pier' concept of urban lagoons on existing land.Those who visit Weedon enjoy the quiet splendor and natural gifts of a pristine estuary so close to our city…Imagine a quiet Sunday morning kayak paddle among mangroves and critters – a stone's throw from our beautiful skyline and amenities of Beach Drive.” Read the entire letter here. Thank you for the support, Mr. Harrington!
