What’s New in Marinette<br />
Menekaunee Harbor Project<br />
The Menominee River<br />
has always been one of the<br />
great strengths of Marinette,<br />
and the <strong>city</strong> recognized<br />
this when it acquired the<br />
former Jozaitis Distributing<br />
company on the shores of<br />
Menekaunee Harbor and<br />
turned it into a picturesque<br />
boat launch on the riverside.<br />
The new launch<br />
features parking for vehicles<br />
and trailers, access to a<br />
three-slip boat launch<br />
with two 30-foot docks,<br />
a 100-foot walkway for<br />
staging along a retaining<br />
wall connected to the<br />
information center at the<br />
northeast end of the site<br />
and a separate launch site<br />
for kayaks and canoes.<br />
A pavilion near the<br />
water with restroom<br />
facilities and a fishcleaning<br />
station set back<br />
to the northwest is also<br />
planned. The site is lit by a<br />
combination of tall street<br />
lights in the parking lot<br />
and shorter, solar-powered<br />
Bollard lights along<br />
the sidewalks. Trees<br />
and a berm soften<br />
the transition of<br />
the park space into<br />
the industrial space<br />
behind, where the<br />
Marinette coal docks<br />
and Waupaca Foundry<br />
are located, and a<br />
storm water collection<br />
site features native<br />
plants.<br />
Members of the<br />
Menominee Indian Tribe<br />
of Wisconsin performed a<br />
wild rice planting ceremony<br />
in the harbor prior to<br />
construction, in honor of<br />
the Menominee River, the<br />
birthplace of the tribe.<br />
