Atlantic Beach Boardwalk Design Competition is a contest to design new boardwalk, pavilion, bathhouse and surrounding areas on the coast of North Carolina. Since the 1920’s the Boardwalk and the surrounding neighborhood have been the social and entertainment center of Atlantic Beach, North Carolina. After a period of decline, the surrounding neighborhood is coming back strong, and the Town of Atlantic Beach will be upgrading the existing public spaces into a world-class design over the next 12 to 24 months. The finished project should contain a resilient boardwalk system, a multi-use pavilion, ADA compliant beach accesses, public art, shade structures, and restrooms. Food, beverage, and amusement options may be included as well. This is not a hypothetical project; it will get built.
This anonymous design competition consists of two stages. There will be a jury consisting of design professionals as well as representatives from the government and real estate development sectors. The intent of this competition is to award the project to the winning firm. All finalists will receive monetary prizes to offset the costs of the final submissions.
Atlantic Beach is located on the southern Outer Banks of North Carolina on the east coast of the US.

- Third Prize: $4,000
Eligibility
