Truman Waterfront - Key West

For almost a decade the City of Key West has been mulling over what to do with almost 34 acres of prime waterfront land deeded to the city by the Navy as part of the Base Realignment and Closure Commission.


It's a lot of seawall the city has received from the Navy. The race course runs parallel to the East Quay  and spectators are so close to the action
they can see the determination, feel the adrenaline and hear the shouts of the teams as they battle towards the finish line.


All this open space is for the city to do as it wishes. An astounding opportunity for the City of Key West and an incredible opportunity for Battle In The Bay to be considered in the plans.



Directions....

Head south on US 1 (Overseas Highway) until you run out of road.
