“If approved, the $72 million Point Chesapeake development will include eight five-story buildings with a mix of condominiums and high-end apartments, Bowie said.”
#WeLoveShoreDrive 
I fully support durable and quality construction along Shore Drive. But note that this construction will add to the population that would be endangered by a major hurricane. If these condos and rentals are not built to withstand a major hurricane (CAT2 or more), the residents will be forced to evacuate onto gridlocked roads, or seek city shelters that are not available. I believe that City Council should require a stronger building code for Point Chesapeake and similar constructions.

Northeast side of Lesner Bridge yo hiker people.
The City, in the interest of the citizen’s, should have purchased this property as a last open area [much as pleasure house point] when the opportunity was presented at a significantly reduced price. The tax basis was more important, apparently to remove indigenous plants along Shore Drive only to plant landscaping plant that need “tax dollars” to maintain; priorities ~ CC needs a change
