St. Stephen Waterfront Gets Funding

Ottawa is spending some money on the St. Stephen water-front. Officials have announced $10,500 dollars to refurbish the wharf and lighthouse which have taken a beating over the past few years. The work includes replacing the deck and underlying structure of the wharf and replacing windows, shingles and putting a fresh coat of paint on the lighthouse.
The Town of St. Stephen is putting in $11,500 dollars towards the project with the local business improvement area rounding out the cost of the project with $4,600 dollars. No word on when the work will get started or finish up.
