Boat docks at DTD

[DWillowBay]

Does anyone know where the boats currently dock as they come from Port Orleans when they reach DTD? Is the MarketPlace dock functional yet? I will be there in March and wondered what the projection for that will be around that time period. Thanks!

During the construction they are docking about 50 yards to the left of the marketplace from the water. There is a short walkway to DTD, but it's only 2 minutes. Other than the appearance and having to come in from outside the marketplace the time in minimal.

We were there in October and the construction wasn't even close to being done. Most waterside stuff wasn't even being worked on. I am not sure of the time line, but I would guess the docks would be one of the last things to be finished.

The new DTD Marketplace dock was completed and opened in August 2014. It's located in the center of the new pedestrian bridge from DTD to SSR. The path to the new bridge and dock runs from the sidewalk at the Marketplace bus stop, so it's behind the DTD shops instead of being at the (former) front side of the shops.
