This may not be news to everyone, but I heard this weekend that Seaside is not renewing the lease for Shades so they will be moving to a new location in the future. Not sure when though.

Dear Rita.....One of the reasons we go to Seagrove year after year is because of the fact that we very much enjoy riding our bikes up and down beautiful 30a. :roll: I think alot of people find that very charming, we spread our money around alot easier on our bikes................... :blink:

I agree with you regarding riding along 30-A. My point was aimed at the riding of bikes on the sidewalks in front of Seaside stores.

The building where Shades is located will likely be torn down. The plan is to have four story buildings wraped all around the town square. Notice the next time your in Seaside that the Fusion art building and the Book store building are the same. Their design is a match of the education buildings located on the green behind the square. Those building will be moved to the education area, and painted white; shades will be torn down or moved, and live/work/retail four story buildings will complete the square as planned 20 years ago. Shades could reopen in one of the new buildings, if it does not i'm sure somrthing else will.

All speculation can now be put to rest. There is a sign in front of the former Tuscany Grill that says, "Shades East Opening June 2005."

It will be a welcome addition to east end of 30A.

So, I guess it will open in July, if we are lucky.

I chatted with one of the waitresses last weekend. Apparently, the property is up for sale, but it has not yet sold. The lease renewal is up in the air until a buyer is found or they decide to take the property off the market. The owners are still hopeful that Shades will remain open in Seaside.

Keep your fingers crossed. :confused:
