waterfront district
Seaside urban zone
A waterfront district is an area of a city or town along the edge of a body of water—a harbor, river, or lake.
These districts historically housed docks, warehouses, and maritime industries, often with a rough reputation.
Many have been redeveloped into mixed-use areas with restaurants, housing, and entertainment: The old waterfront district is now full of condos and boutique hotels.
