Atlantic City broke ground on the Lt. Gov. Sheila Y. Oliver Plaza — a courtyard at City Hall — earlier this week.
The plaza, in honor of the late lieutenant governor, will feature her name, which will be etched in the building above the main entrance, and will be placed on street signs throughout the courtyard. The project aims to be completed this fall.
The project incorporates environmentally responsible renewable energy concepts and enhanced security and safety features, such as improved lighting throughout the courtyard and the addition of lanterns on the walls of the buildings. A cover will be added above the walkway leading to the main entrance to City Hall. That area will also now be gated.
