Project Funding: $49,699 (Engineering) $1,031,000 (Construction) SIGNATURE PROJECT Main Street Arch Restoration Project Status: 100% Complete
The Daytona Beach Main Street Arch, a cherished symbol of the city’s history, underwent an extensive restoration project to preserve its nearly 90-year legacy. The iconic arch, which has connected the boardwalk and pier since the 1930s, holds decades of memories for residents and visitors alike.
The project aimed to bring new life to the landmark while maintaining its original character.
Restoration began after engineers identified exterior cracking and deteriorated steel and concrete within the historic structure. Crews completed demolition and began formwork for new concrete beams and columns, restoring the arch’s structural integrity. The exterior was finished with new coquina to preserve the arch’s historic appearance.
While under construction, the arch was closed to the public, though the boardwalk and Main Street businesses remained accessible.
