Esther Street Beachfront Park ceremony April 20 Soon beachgoers will have another option for beachfront parking. The ribbon cutting ceremony for Esther Street Beachfront Park will be at 9 a.m., Saturday, April 20. New Smyrna Beach and Volusia County elected officials are expected to participate. In addition to off-beach parking, the park includes pavilions, restrooms, a playground, walking trails, a volleyball area, reconstructed seawall and a wooden dune walkover. Stormwater improvements also were included in the project. 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.
