Scituate's First Cliff/Harbor to be rejuvenated!

Scituate's citizens and business owners are becoming more excited about the prospect of a First Cliff Marine Center. So much that they are all willing to pitch in and donate money, supplies and labor. The town purchased the parcel of land on Edward Foster Road in 2004. It was previously Young's Boat Yard and consists of 3.1 acres overlooking Scituate Harbor and is located on the road heading towards First Cliff. National Lumber is donating $30,000. worth of material to build a Maritime Center and this structure will be built by the students at the South Shore Vocational Technical High School for free. The outpouring of support is largely due to the benefit it will provide to the town itself. The Marina will provide additional access to the water and will offer a park with walking trails. It is hoped that after obtaining the necessary permits, constrution of Phase One can begin as early as June 1.
