Waiting and Seeing on Fort Myers Beach

It's wait and see these days on the  small Island Village of Estero Island, Fort Myers Beach, Florida.  Will a Developer who has purchased several of the downtown properties be granted the variances he needs to build his grand resorts?  Will Lee County  agree to give him a County Park to be a part and parcel of his plans?  But, even without this Development, many of the old beach cottages are being torn down and in their stead, grand "mansions" are being erected.  Progress.  Progress?  I have a great liking for the old beach cottages.  I am fortunate enough to own one.  Fortunately, not all of the Cottages are being demolished.  Many homeowners prefer to update and remodel, thereby preserving the history and the charm of Fort Myers Beach.
