It's intended to turn the area into a year-round hub of activity and connect to the rest of downtown, the riverfront and East Bradenton.

Flagler County is on the verge of becoming the second Florida county certified as Tsunami Ready by the National Weather Service. While virtually the whole state is considered Storm Ready, officials say there's a non-zero chance that an earthquake in places as far away as the Canary Islands could send a wall of water toward Florida. In addition to awareness, the tsunami-ready designation has other advantages, including the potential to lower flood insurance rates. We speak with Flagler County's emergency management director, Jonathan Lord.
