Whew....yes, I live right across from there--hope it doesn't stay unfinished--I wonder if they would let me rent the tacky man-made pond at the front of the place for kiddie parties with plastic paddle boats :lol:
(If not, maybe the Airforce could use it as bombing practice)

That is a good idea. I hate driving all the way in to PC for bumper boats. :funn:

I am amazed at how the county just rubber stamped all these projects.
Why?

You know how there are those SuperFund Clean up sites for environmental hazards/spills/etc?
Perhaps there can be a SuperFund Designation for half finished developments...
Those deteriorating half finished houses in Inlet Beach south of Highway 98 make me crazy...Where is Walton County Code Enforcement when we need them?"?"??:bang:

Occupied elsewhere. Out removing signs from the highway. It's what they do best, and why they needed those expensive trucks. :roll:
Beach Fanatic
yeah, but they aren't removing the signs that really need removing!
needs to get out more
you assume they have no money....perhaps they have really deep pockets???
i assume they have a CDD that will cover any infrastructure costs, but like SJ said, if there's no sales, why continue laying any?

What?s up with developers these days?

What are builders and developers doing now that there are so many properties for sale and so few buyers? Is anyone still building or planning to build a new project? Why? What?s up with Prominence, the Hotel Viridian and Owl?s Head? If a project is abandoned, will it turn into an eyesore?
WORKERS ON
ASSIGNMENT
Although one entrance to Prominence is blocked by a construction vehicle and there are rarely cars in the parking lot, there?s still activity behind the scenes.
Prominence Realty?s Broker Sherry Carter said the developer, Deer Lake Development LLC, pulled work crews from the Prominence site on County Road 30A to complete Tidewater in Panama City Beach. That project, a 600-unit condo, was nearing completion, she said.
Meanwhile, the developer is working to fi nalize plans for the commercial area that will surround the man-made harbor, Carter said....

Just a couple of other abandoned developments on 30-A: Magnolia - across from Andante, and Chateau du Paris - across from Monterey. Both are eyesores and the developers should be fined - especially Chateau.

Minor thread drift, in response to SJ's post from the Walton Sun.
Apologies to George and partners, but I'm fine with the Hotel Viridian fizzling. I like my grouper sandwiches in the old market, thank you.

I find it interesting that Hotel Viridian peeps are talking about changing their entire concept since the condo-tel didn't go over at all. The property just received a one year extension on the Development Order, yet no work has been done, and the property is actively listed for sale.

File complaints on them so the very slow process can begin.

Yep, but no one is allowed to use it.

Yes they do. No horse where we are eating tomorrow. :wave:

Yes, I go over there and shoot hoops now and then.... The cement slab for the Chateau du Paris basketball court is as big as one of the entire lots in there. Well, we all know what great basketball players the French are!:rolling:

What' the deal with Magnolia? What type of development was it? Has it really been abandoned?

Interesting...I did know the county was able to grant DO extensions? How big of a campaign contribution do you have to give to get one of those? :confused:

SJ, its my understanding that the developer of Chateau du Paris has a suit against the county and local property owners regarding the construction of the block fence. Neighbors have told me that he tied into the sewer wrong and has the block fence on the neighboring property. It's my understanding that the developer is from Atlanta!!! I have heard he is sueing the county for discrimination! Guess he is not use to dealing with the complex coding system of Walton County.
