Construction began last week on the waterfront Slipaway Food Truck Park & Marina in Cape Coral. Expected to open in late 2024, Slipaway will be the city’s first food truck park. On 3.1 acres at 1811 Cape Coral Parkway E. at the foot of the Cape Coral Bridge, it will include space for 10 food trucks, 30 boat slips, 154 seats at the central bar, six shade pavilions with an additional 144 seats, 1,370 feet of pathways and boardwalks and 120 parking spots. The concept is led by owners Jeff Miloff, Gary Aubuchon, Scott Fischer, Sandra Dean, John Kulhavi, Chuck McGuirk and Rick McGuirk. Slipaway opened applications for its available food truck spots and will consider established food trucks, as well as new food truck concepts. Water, electric and sewer hook-ups will be provided for 10 food trucks.
