Local Irish pub Donovan’s is located at Plaza Palencia, just southeast of the intersection of International Golf Parkway and US-1. With great Irish-inspired food, good service, and a genuinely sincere staff, this fun bar and restaurant is a nice place to relax, watch some football, and enjoy a comforting meal. I have been going to Donovan’s ever since I can remember (I’m 12 now), and it is definitely one of my favorite restaurants.

This month we are focusing on a very special neighborhood in World Golf Village’s King & Bear community, WildWood! Davidson Realty agent Jennifer Todd joins us as we tour the neighborhood and highlight some of its best features like the beautiful forested conservation land surrounding the homesites and its quiet, family-friendly cul-de-sacs.
WildWood is the only neighborhood inside the King & Bear that is nestled within the largest preservation area in the community (28.1 acres). As you enter WildWood, the view before you is a 1,100’ long vista through a park, over a lake to the backdrop of conservation where there are frequent sightings of wild turkey and native deer.

CNN is another in a long line of media outlets to name St. Augustine one of the best places to retire. In October, CNNMoney listed St. Augustine as one of “25 Best Places to Retire” in a list that also included Winston-Salem, NC, Austin, TX, Tucson, AZ, and Louisville, KY. St. Augustine was the only Florida city to make the cut.
The article highlighted “St. Augustine’s fantastic weather, beautiful beaches, and world-class golf” as well as its “active year-round community,” housing options and Flagler Hospital. In recent years, SmartMoney listed St. Augustine as one of nine “Best New Places to Retire,” Wall Street Journal’s MarketWatch listed St. Augustine as one of the “10 Best Places to Retire in the U.S,” and Bloomberg Businessweek listed St. Augustine as one of “America’s Best Affordable Places to Retire.”

Conceptually, the St. Johns’ Harbour project, as approved had, few attributes. Fortunately, the project did have significant exposure to I-95 and the granted approvals preceded the implementation of the 1985 Growth Management Act/Concurrency in St. Johns County, which implied the project would be vested from this yet to be implemented law. Finding a way to capitalize on these two project “attributes” was going to be the key to meeting the investor’s goals and objectives.
