Panama City Beach growth unbelievable

Everywhere you turn there is new commercial and residential building going on. Big, Big BIG projects. It will soon be bigger than Gulf Shores and Destin combined with room for development along front beach, middle beach, and back beach roads. Not to mention all the land north of back beach road to the bay and up Hwy 79 to I-10 and along Hwy 20, and the north bay road. No wonder St. Joe wants an airport.

ps - The new Target at Pier Park is about 1/2 built.

Ooooh noooo. I don't know anything about SJ's private life and I'm not making any predictions! And I'm not convinced Shelly is female.

When I first say GF, I thought "gulf front" and then realized it could mean "girl friend".
I will never buy a Gulf Front property.

Also a Ron Jon's. Though I'm not sure how I feel about a Ron Jon's empire. I liked them when they were a moderately successful surf shop in New Jersey and on Cocoa Beach. How do you stay true to the original counterculture vibe when you've gone corporate?

That is the rumor which I hear too. Time will tell. Remember that things change. Arvida tried to get Bass Pro Shop in there too, but you see where they went. I wonder how much Peter Bos had to promise Bass Pro to get them to anchor in Destin Commons?

It would surprise me if there wasn't one built there or nearby.

There IS going to be one at Grand Boulevard in Sandestin.

Will this one be closer to 30-A than the Destin location?

About the same distance, but much less traffic during high season. It will be much closer for people on the east end of 30A.

The need for ?more things to do? is on developer?s minds, and The Simon Group has put a fast track on Pier Park, a 900,000 square-foot parcel running from Front Beach Road at the Pier to the heavily-traveled Highway 98 (a.k.a. Panama City Beach Parkway). This fun, family-oriented retail destination will mix shopping, dining and entertainment. Target and a 16-theater Rave Motion Picture Theater will be completed by fall of 2006, with full project completion scheduled for 2007.

Well, like everything else around here, they are on Beach Time, and "behind" schedule.

Rave is one of the nicest theatre companies which I have been to, and I love the shortcut self service ticket booths. :D

Want to know how to mortify a teenager? :oops: Get his overweight mom to stumble and fall down the little lighted steps in the Rave, in the middle of the movie. Then, have Mom laugh so hard at the expression on his face that she almost does what she got up to go do in the first place. :floor:

Yes, I'm okay. Just a little sore. And if you can't laugh at yourself, who can you laugh at? :cool:
