Click here to find out more!
Beaufort commissioners in Carteret County announced Monday the Front Street Village Project is almost 22 months ahead of schedule. Phase two of the project, which includes a 90 room inn and a public bistro, is expected to bring jobs, tourists, and in turn a boost to the local economy. Construction on these facilities is expected to start next year and be completed by 2014.
"I really thinks it's a good fit for the community. It's not like someone is building a modern big complex. It's quaint and it's keeping with the architecture. I think its going to be good, " said resident David Evans.
The new inn will look directly over the Shackelford Banks where wild horses roam.
