Tim Aten Knows: Marina project planned in Old Naples

A marina project will replace some longtime businesses near the Naples City Dock in Crayton Cove.

Napoli on the Bay pizzeria and the Phil Fisher Gallery both have to vacate their building by April 30. The owners of both businesses have known for many years that they have been living on borrowed time there.

“We knew it from Day 1 that something was going to happen, but we didn’t have a specific timeframe.
