The project also locks in permanent public access, with strict conditions requiring lifelong trail upkeep, protected natural areas, bird-friendly glass, and no hard seawalls. Before ground breaks, the developer must clear final cleanup hurdles and secure approvals from multiple agencies—but with these safeguards, the examiner says it’s a win for both the environment and the community.
