Old Dock – New Era: Public Access and Possibility at 44th Ave E (Bunge Dock)

  • 44th Ave. Dock (Bunge Dock) 44th Avenue East Superior, WI, 54880 United States (map)

Join the St. Louis River Alliance and the City of Superior for a guided walking tour of the 44th Ave E dock—formerly known as the Bunge Dock—the future site of a public waterfront access area on Allouez Bay.

During this on-site tour, participants will explore the location’s industrial history, current conditions, and the possibilities for future public use. St. Louis River Alliance and Stantec (engineering designers) staff will gather community input as part of ongoing engagement and outreach efforts to help shape the vision for this emerging public space. Final uses for the site have not yet been determined and will be directly informed by public feedback.
