The Port Preserve Trail Ribbon Cutting

A new destination for nature lovers is taking shape in The Port District.

A ribbon cutting will be held March 4 for The Preserve at the Port District, a 13-acre conservation area and scenic preserve that will offer residents and visitors a peaceful retreat to relax, walk trails and enjoy the outdoors – right in the heart of the city.

Located at the southernmost point of The Port District, the Preserve features peaceful walking trails, scenic boardwalk connections and nature overlooks along a wetland, creating an immersive experience for residents and visitors alike.

It also connects to the existing boardwalk along the North Fork of the St. Lucie River, which spans more than three-quarters of a mile – perfect for a tranquil stroll through nature.

This project is part of the City’s Naturally PSL: Green Spaces and Places Initiative, which supports increasing residents’ access to parks, trails and natural areas,  connecting them to the environment and enhancing quality of life.

Construction on the Preserve began in August 2025 and was funded through the Parks Impact Fee Capital Improvement Project and a grant from the Florida Inland Navigation District.

The public is invited to help celebrate this exciting addition to our community. Following the ribbon-cutting, there will be food trucks to purchase food and beverages, and the trail will be ready for participants to enjoy!
