Cape Charles Railroad & Harbor Ideas Competition

Cape Charles Railroad & Harbor Ideas Competition

The Town of Cape Charles has announced the launch of the Cape Charles Railroad & Harbor Ideas Competition, a national initiative inviting creative thinkers to help shape the future of its historic waterfront.

The competition seeks innovative and visionary concepts to inform a new master plan that is being developed for the harbor area—once the heart of the town’s railroad and shipping industry along the Chesapeake Bay. With the decline of rail infrastructure and the rise of remote work in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, Cape Charles is experiencing renewed interest as a vibrant coastal community.
