What Would you Like to See at Main Street Landing?
We want to know how you think the building should be used.
The developer of Main Street Landing, the complex being built at the corner of Main Street and River Road in New Port Richey, is ready to talk about plans for the complex.
Are you?
Work has progressed on the shell of the first building in the planned multi-building complex is nearly complete. But the inside is not inhabitable. Developer Ken McGurn has submitted new site plans for the property to city officials.
Work on the Main Street Landing complex, initially pitched as a mixed-use residential and retail development, has progressed in fits and starts since it was proposed in 2004.
Last summer, McGurn went to the City Council asking for financial assistance, saying he was having trouble getting financing.
City officials later agreed to pay for streetscaping improvements, stemming mostly from Penny for Pasco funds.
The city council is poised to discuss the new site plans tonight at 7 p.m. in City Hall, 5919 Main St., New Port Richey.
What do you think should go in this space? Let us know in the comments section.

Services for the unemployed. Job center. Medical services for the poor and needy. Social services in general for the Pasco County residences, particularly the residents in New Port Richey, who pay city taxes. This is still a recession, that no one talks about. Florida has been hit hard with it. Help with foreclosures, etc. Low cost dental, medical services. 12 step programs. Good start?

Also I was reading about restaurants, including Panera bread that have restaurants, based on what one can afford to pay. At least one meal on menu, based on what you can afford. Of course, a wonderful produce stand, would be great, that the food inspector allows to sell fresh made salads, like tabouli.
