“We are pleased to help preserve the largest undeveloped parcel of land on the Lynnhaven River for generations to come,” said Virginia M. Board, president of The Dominion Foundation and managing director of community affairs for Dominion Virginia Power. “Pleasure House Point provides valuable public green space and the opportunity to experience shoreline habitat, wetlands and maritime forest, and it protects the natural habitat of birds and marine life.”

From the Press Release:

Before Wells Fargo took over ownership of the property last year, developers had planned to build a large waterfront development known as Indigo Dunes. TPL intends to buy the property from Wells Fargo and sell most of the land to the Virginia Beach Parks and Recreation Department for open space preservation and public access to the Lynnhaven River.

“It’s gratifying to see the progress we’ve made toward preserving this unique property,” said Virginia Beach Mayor William D. Sessoms, Jr. “I thank Dominion Virginia Power and the Dominion Foundation for their generosity, and for joining this partnership to save the largest piece of undeveloped waterfront property on the Lynnhaven.”

Pleasure House Point. Critical habitat for wildlife, you & future generations!
