Esther Street Beachfront Park nears completion Work on Esther Street Beachfront Park is in the final months of construction. Pavilions and restrooms are in place. Stormwater improvements and parking lot construction nearly are complete. The park entrance will be widened and paved. When opened in mid-March, park amenities will include off-beach parking, a playground, walking trails, pavilions, restroom facilities, volleyball area, reconstructed seawall and a wooden dune walkover. The total projected cost of the project is nearly $1.7 million and is funded jointly by the County of Volusia and the City of New Smyrna Beach through its Community Redevelopment Agency (CRA), the Florida Department of Environmental Protection and the City's general fund.
