Are you talking about the trees south of the Seagrove Market that were on 393 and stopped at 30A? The palms?

I do not blame the owners for wanting the "highest and best use" for their property. I know traditions die hard and change can be tough, but progress continues. All good things come to an end and all good things have a beginning.

Bulldozing dunes, polluting coastal dune lakes, and clear cutting forests are crimes - the passing of a Seagrove landmark and a few pretty oaks pale in comparison. All things in this life are impermanent.

Thank you for your response. I am trying to orient myself to the pictures you provided. I think I understand the first and second pictures but I can't figure out the third one. I only come there in October and April. Someone told me last October that the Hotel Veridan (sp?) was not going to happen.

It is going to happen. Click on these links below that Kurt posted above to read more about it.

I just wish that some of the developers who want the highest and best use for their property, would find a way to have that without destroying everything on the property...

this makes me physically ill just as I was ill when the huge oak tree (at what had been Anthony's Tractor
at the corner of Musset Bayou and Highway 98) went down...and now what do we have there: an empty strip mall, with lights that burn all night; and the parking lot is used as overflow for the restaurant across the street...is that really highest and best use?

if the hotel is not going to be built for awhile, why did the trees come down today...just to concrete over the sand or are they still planning to build the underground parking garage...

oh how I wish we had a tree ordinance here!

In real estate terms, "highest and best use" means most profitable.
