Article says they now have an 88 space parking lot on site. Weird that the last owner didn’t buy the property for that.
Was involved with the rebuild after Issac. Original owner (who did sadly commit suicide) always had the marina parking as part of the plan. Its a family that owns the marina. He made a handshake deal on the parking with the mother. She passed away right when construction started and the daughters didn't want to give him the parking. He got screwed and had to buy the adjacent house and have it moved off site by barge to create the little bit of parking they had.
Owner who committed suicide was underwater in debt. Took a good idea and blew it up too much. The new owners bought the property for less than half of what the other owner had it in. At those numbers, they should be able to turn a profit and make it work.
Hope it does well. Lot a blood, sweat and tears on the piece of property. Will be good to have that building in commerce again

Man, the old bar at Friend’s interior was perfect for drinking. I miss it.
