Expansion
Area
In 2006 , the Community Redevelopment Area was expanded to include the Port St . Lucie Boulevard / Riverwalk District . The 321 +/ - acre CRA Expansion Area extends along Port St . Lucie Boulevard from Gowin Drive west to the edge of the North Fork of the St . Lucie River and includes portions of Westmoreland Boulevard and Veterans Memorial Parkway . In 2010 , the City opened the Port St . Lucie Botanical Gardens on Westmoreland Boulevard in an area now between area known and change Riverwalk South in this sentence to The Port District known as Riverwalk South . The redevelopment strategy for this area is to support the development of a vibrant residential , entertainment , and recreation area that protects and enhances existing neighborhoods . The Riverwalk District was re-named The Port District in an effort to bring “ the port ” to Port St . Lucie .
The current CRA Expansion Area Master Plan is depicted in Figure 3 .
