neptune beach: Top 50 Most Valuable Homes In Duval County, FL - 04/10/12 05:18 AM
Kind of interesting tidbit I stumbled across on the Times Union website this morning with a link to the Top 50 most valuable homes in Duval County, which is home to Jacksonville, Jacksonville Beach, Atlantic Beach and Neptune Beach. Most are located along water, but not all are oceanfront; a large number are riverfront estates on the St. John's River which is a very picturesque setting. Would love to see the companion piece including St. John's County homes, which is home to Ponte Vedra & Ponte Vedra Beach!

neptune beach: Restaurant Review: Metro Diner, Jacksonville Beach, FL - 02/19/12 12:15 PM
A few friends and I ventured out for lunch today, as we typically do, and today we enjoyed The Metro Diner. Now, the Metro Diner has been around for quite some time, but this location in Jacksonville Beach is a new one; their soft open was just last weekend, so the place was packed. Think southern comfort food at fabulous prices and you have the gist. You can peruse their menu here. And, they have been featured on Diners, Drive-Ins & Dives as well. Since they are new, you can expect a wait (ours was an hour to be seated today),

Tomorrow is the big race day here in Jacksonville & the beaches - it's the annual 26.2 with Donna End Breast Cancer half and full marathons!

Here's the link to the race route, so you can plan appropriately. Congrats to all the runners, and dress warm;

neptune beach: Poe's Tavern, Atlantic Beach, FL - 01/11/12 10:50 AM
It's nice to read positive news about a local (well, 2nd location) recently opened restaurant. Poe's Tavern opened right around Halloween (I think) and has had an immediate impact on the Town Center restaurant scene. Based on Edgar Allen Poe (obviously) the menu has all sorts of offerings with Poe titles. The ladys' room is wallpapered in pages from Poe books (can't tell you about the mens' room, haven't been in there - yet!) It's a cool inside/outside floorplan, with an open deck area, then a high top table area that is covered, but has roll up garage doors to let

neptune beach: New Year's Day Polar Plunge, Jacksonville Beach, FL - 01/10/12 08:18 AM
I have friends who have done this every year, and they love it. I, being from NJ originally, hold firmly to the theory that you should only go into the Atlantic Ocean between Memorial Day & Labor Day, and New Year's Day CLEARLY does not fall into that window. I may consider it as a way to welcome 2013; let's face it, at least our water temps are still in the 60's down here, compared to the northern states! Jacksonville Beach Polar Plunge

neptune beach: DBC Day 14 - Chamber Board Of Directors Meeting - 12/17/11 10:41 AM
I have chaired several task forces/committees over the past few years for the Chamber of Commerce, and have thus evolved to be on the Board of Directors for the Beaches Division. The meetings are every other month, so the time commitment is not large, but the pay off is immense. I LOVE being among the first to know what is going on in my area, and that is exactly what happens as part of being on the Board. I have learned what is opening next in vacant commercial space (the vacant Caribee Key will have a new restaurant operated by

neptune beach: Building Height Limit Changes Upcoming For The Beaches??? - 12/03/11 08:06 AM
I've lived in the beaches area of Jacksonville, FL for the past 20+ years, and have seen the redevelopment of several areas, maximizing their locations and consumer friendliness. I have first hand witnessed some of these changes, and for the most part, they have been positive changes. One of the items the voters of Atlantic Beach, Neptune Beach and Jacksonville Beach voted on a few years ago was a building height limit to keep the coastline looking like it did: not dotted with a myriad of high rise condos. It was really targeting residential, and defined several Central Business Districts.
