Ocean Valley- A tourist Mecca

Welcome- Its time to see the tourism of Ocean Valley- while most of the pictures are tourism, 1 shows why its a tourist city to begin with.

An old Catholic Church. St Anthony' is on James Turner Mem. Bvld fairly close to the church we showed you the last time. It lies in the Seaview Estates District, This popular tourist site lies in a prime location for those traveling along the ocean.

Take me out to the ball game. The city's baseball stadium lies off the highway. Featuring a parking garage and rail station, The stadium is beautiful. Easy to see from the highway, the stadium features a SPUI type exit- one of the newest in the nation.

Shoreline Arena.  This Convention center overlooks the ocean. Its name is misleading as the area has been filled in to add more land since the structure was built. Completed in 1995, the arena holds conventions on a monthly basis- featuring a restaurant, bar, and open area for conventions, the arena is part of the rich cultural history of this seaside city.

Seaview District. Several neighborhoods are tourist mecca's, and this one is one of them. Its reason is location. Quaint homes, wonderful shops, and the arena and Catholic Church make up this district.

James Turner Mem. Bvld. You can see the catholic church in this picture. This is the main northern end exit to the road. The always busy road has very little stop lights as a way to ease traffic congestion. It worked. The bend shown is referred to as Northboro Bend.

 

Hope you enjoyed a fresh new look of Ocean Valley.

Looks really nice so far! It would have been nice to see a picture of the SPUI interchange you were talking about. You know, being a roadgeek and all, I need to see that stuff. ;)

Count me in with Bruce (Schulmanator).  Although I do think that you might flesh out the particular reasons why the area is a tourist attraction.  I saw a church, a stadium and an arena.  They are nice, but most mid- to largish cities have those things in common.

I think this is a lovely entry. Loved your first picture. In downtown Montreal, one of the main attraction is a church called Eglise Notre-Dame...made me feel like I was visiting it again...great job.
