Waterside will someday return as a viable piece of property, with some kind of redo. However, if you want to see a vaguely similar area, developed by the same Rouse company, trek up to Baltimore's Inner Harbor, if some may have not done already. I'm really envious. It has a very real natural advantage in that it (the area, not just the single Harborplace building) is kinda horseshoe shaped around the water rather than straight across as is the Waterside area, and in that it has no pedestrian barrier to its access as Waterside unfortunately has with Waterside Drive. Talk about bustling, their area is I'd say 10 times as big and active as our Waterside area, and no matter what our redo becomes, those two built-in advantages that Inner Harbor has will probably keep it ahead for a long time to come. That being said, the Norfolk waterfront is still an amazing testament to progress, and still has room to improve considerably. The more Portsmouth continues with its waterfront development, the more will be added to the Waterside area experience and feel as well. Come to think of it, if Portsmouth, Waterside, Harbor park waterfront, Fort Norfolk waterfront, SoNo, etc. keep developing, our overall downtown waterfront experience may even someday eclipse Baltimore's!
