The
Destin Harbor Will Soon Let the
Good
Times Roll!
HarborWalk
Village by Legendary, Inc.
Welcome
Pat O’Brien’s
For
immediate release – Legendary Inc.’s newest development,
HarborWalk Village, continues to take shape along the
Destin Harbor.
Scheduled to open in the summer of 2007,
Legendary is excited to announce the addition of a venue
that’s sure to keep the good times rolling in Destin.
This
addition of French Quarter persuasion is the well known
New Orleans icon, Pat O’Brien’s. Made famous for its
signature flaming fountain, dueling piano bar,
restaurant concept and world-famous Hurricane drink,
this grand taste of the Big Easy will add an extra spice
of excitement to the harbor and to the city.
The
decision to bring this New Orleans legend to Destin was
based on the city’s consistently strong market in the
food, beverage and entertainment industry according to
Destin Pat O’Brien’s franchise owner Craig Tingle. “We have long
been enthusiastic about entertainment, dining and
catering opportunities along the Emerald Coast. Peter
Bos has been both a visionary and a source of
inspiration in his quest to turn our combined dreams
into reality,” explained Tingle.
Also
commenting on the decision for the Destin site is Bill
Warshauer, who heads Pat O’Brien’s International, Inc.,
“We are very excited for the opportunity to have Pat
O’Brien’s Destin as part of our growing corporate
family. Visitors from all over the world have continued
to experience Pat O’Brien’s for over 70 years. It is
only natural to want to bring a piece of New Orleans to
Destin.
This will be a perfect match for our
concept.”
From the
French Quarter to the Destin Harbor, Pat O’Brien’s
Destin promises to be a high-energy celebration
destination for locals and visitors alike, along with
the ultimate in entertainment and superb waterfront
dining. The space at HarborWalk Village devoted to this
new venue will offer over 12,000 square feet of covered
and courtyard space with seating for over 400. There
will be multiple levels, each overlooking the Destin
Harbor and the East Pass where customers can enjoy the
breathtaking views while enjoying any one of Pat
O’Brien’s signature beverages.
Tingle
added, “I am delighted to be involved in bringing such a
strong brand as Pat O’Brien’s to the Emerald Coast.
HarborWalk Village, like so many of Legendary’s
corporate accomplishments, this will be a first class
facility and attraction bringing together an eclectic
array of local, regional and national
brands.”
When Pat
O’Brien’s Destin opens in 2007, the ambience of
green-jacketed waiters, flaming fountain and hurricane
drinks will add the perfect note to the exciting harbor
lifestyle at HarborWalk Village.
Accompanying
Pat O’Brien’s in HarborWalk Village is Emerald Grande
resort condominiums, offering unparalleled luxury,
amenities and service. Emerald
Grande is helping lead the way to not only create the
most luxurious resort along the Gulf Coast, but also one
where both visitors to the resort and owners of the
units will have a festive environment in HarborWalk
Village to enjoy their stay.
