"It is my hypothesis that this is the second settlement of St. Augustine ... There is no evidence of any other site that's been found."
Archaeologist Carl Halbirt, , speaking of the possibiliy that the site of a beachfront hotel n St. Augustine Beach may also be the site of a settlement datng back to around 1750. The existing hotel was sold and may soon be razed, opening up opportunities to explore its past.
In secret, behind locked gates, our Nation's Oldest City dumped a landfill in a lake (Old City Reservoir), while emitting sewage in our rivers and salt marsh. Organized citizens exposed and defeated pollution, racism and cronyism. We elected a new Mayor. We're transforming our City -- advanced citizenship. Ask questions. Make disclosures. Demand answers. Be involved. Expect democracy. Report and expose corruption. Smile! Help enact a St. Augustine National Park and Seashore. We shall overcome!
