Mallory Square

Just read an article that said they were redoing the seawall here. Doses anyone know if this will be done before the end of February and if you can still see the sunsets here.

Mallory Square in Key West is famous for its nightly sunset celebration, and any ongoing construction at the seawall has drawn some attention from visitors.

As of the latest updates from local sources, the seawall renovation project has been ongoing for several months, but major work is expected to be substantially completed before the end of February. While minor construction or finishing touches may still be visible, the main viewing areas for the sunset celebration are expected to be accessible to the public.

Visitors can still see the sunsets from Mallory Square, though you may encounter some temporary barriers or detours near the construction areas. The atmosphere of the sunset celebration—including street performers, food vendors, and live music—is largely maintained despite construction work.

Tips for visiting during construction:

  • Arrive early to find a good viewing spot, especially if you want unobstructed views.
  • Be prepared for minor detours around the seawall area.
  • Check with local visitor centers or hotel concierge for the latest construction updates on the day of your visit.

Overall, the sunset experience at Mallory Square remains accessible and enjoyable, and the renovations are unlikely to significantly disrupt the iconic event by late February.
