Tiki Point at Harborwalk Living Shoreline Pilot Project

Introduction

In 2017, the Four Points Sheraton Hotel reached out to The Nature Conservancy (TNC) and the Charlotte

Harbor National Estuary Program (CHNEP) to express an interest in improving the natural aesthetics and

habitat value along the hotel's seawall. This led to the formation of a collaborative partnership to promote

nature-based shoreline improvements in the City of Punta Gorda (City). The partners include the City,

TNC, the Four Points Sheraton, CHNEP, FL Department of Environmental Protection Charlotte Harbor

Aquatic Preserves and CH2M Hill (Jacobs). The Four Points Sheraton has a public easement along the

seawalled shoreline of the hotel property for the City’s Harborwalk, which connects Laishley Park

municipal marina with the Charlotte Harbor Event and Conference Center. This pedestrian promenade

has promoted public use of the waterfront and has been a driver to continued improvements of the

appearance and function of the seawall through nature-based strategies that may also help to mitigate

the adverse effects of future storms. Figure 1 shows the proposed project location just west of the US

Highway 41 northbound bridge. The site includes the seawall in front of the Four Points Sheraton to the

Conference Center for an approximate shoreline length of 800 feet.

This technical memorandum (TM) provides conceptual designs to create a living shoreline along this

segment of the City’s Harborwalk and evaluate future expansion for implementation of this concept along

the City’s coastline. This TM provides the result of a preliminary field evaluation and presents preliminary

concepts for development of a living shoreline along the seawall to provide a higher performing coastal

environment.

Purpose of Project

This project is intended to build on the current momentum for enhancing natural habitat, improving water

quality and providing increased coastal resilience in the region through conceptual design of the first living

shoreline in Charlotte Harbor. As a model for the region, this living shoreline project is intended to provide

an example of a public-private partnership approach to project development. The conceptual plan also

explores the application of multiple elements of a living shoreline system that may be considered on other

projects in the Charlotte Harbor area, recognizing that each project will require analysis and design that

considers the unique needs and objectives of the local area. In addition, regulatory permitting

requirements for the proposed living shoreline were evaluated and potential funding sources, including

state and federal grants. This project is proposed to be sited near a seawall with existing rip rap and its

primary purpose is habitat creation along the seawall while it also will serve as a buffer during storm

events to increase the lifespan of the existing sea wall.

Data Collection

Data analysis for this project consisted of desktop data collection from projects currently underway and

GIS data already collected of the Charlotte Harbor/Peace River region obtained from partners and

stakeholders in the region. A field visit was also conducted to evaluate site conditions and develop basic

assumptions for the design concept, which will be supplemented with detailed investigations and

engineering during the future design phase, prior to construction.

Desktop Data Collection

Data was requested from Charlotte Harbor National Estuary Program, The Nature Conservancy, City of

Punta Gorda, and Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP) and included the following

information:

• GIS data for the region including, but not limited to: bathymetry and topography digital

elevation models (DEMs), shapefiles showing existing habitats, storm surge layers, and sea

level rise layers

• Natural Resources

• Listed Species of Concern
