===Multi-use Stadium===
One of the largest (and most criticized) elements of the park is the stadium that will serve primarily as a home ballpark for the Studer-owned [[Pensacola Pelicans]]. When not in use, the outfield walls can be removed to connect the space with the waterfront concert green.
===University classrooms & conference center===
The [[University of West Florida]] will also host classes for its business and continuing education departments at the Park. Although The same building may also house a conference center, which [[Quint Studer]] has promised to use for his health care seminars.
===Public green space & waterfront access===
The entire southern end of the Park property adjacent to [[Pensacola Bay]] will be converted to a public concert green and waterfront promenade. Retired insurance executive [[R. K. "Skip" Hunter]] donated $1 million to the project in [[2006]] for the construction of a concert shell on the property's southeast corner.
===Mixed-use commercial space===
Several buildings will be constructed on the northern end of the property, to be leased to third parties for retail shops, restaurants and other uses. These leases are expected to generate a large portion of the Park's revenue.
===Other features===
The Park will also include landscaped gardens and fountains, gazebos, a breakwater and marina, and eventually a lighthouse, although rising costs have forced the development team to postpone these features until an unspecified time, when additional revenue enables a "Phase II."
