It was distressing to walk through Seaside this morning and hear the sickening sound of a crane crunching up the kiosks which formerly lined the
Quincy Circle. One retailer I spoke to said the kiosks were in terrible shape, but surely they had another use/reuse than being reduced to piles of rubble which will now occupy more space in a landfill.
Do we have an award on this web site for the most un-green act of the year?
If not, I propose we start one. I nominate Seaside.

A local builder is getting ready to build a house for a client in Seaside and was doing a tear down. That is probably what you saw. They were planning on recycling a lot of the materials, however the house was old and built from some low quality lumber, so they were anticipating a fair amount of rot.isn't that what seaside said about the huts?

Building office buildings on existing parking areas, much less being handicapped accessible. Try parking close to the pool for example. You have to park in someone?s place who actually pays rent or a mortgage, just to take the kids to swim lessons! I don?t think he?s environmentally friendly, or family friendly, just greedy!
i'm perplexed why you don't focus your anger toward walton county for not having a public pool, with ample parking, in sowal. instead you are placing the blame on seaside, as though they were designed as your town center.

Maybe Floridagirl would like to help us get the public pool going with the playpark- it is on our "wish list", and there may be ways to get a pool.

I am dying to get a local pool where I can swim laps. Right now, I am driving to the PCB Aquatic Center once a week.
Let me know if you need any help getting the momentum going on that idea.
