The shape of it ,wasn't changed until it's demolition in 2005.it's a restaurant but nothing like this.it's part of a condo unit.I read this
Just west as it was there not longer after Patrick's pizza closes is Ninos pizza.he has been here for nearly as long and has several locations.he used to serve only Italian food on the beach.his former locale is across from the 711 on the south side of city limits on the beach.it was across from the old Charlie browns

The closest and due north was the south portion of the driftwood inn.I haven't photographed that part of the driftwood. That is the newer addition from the 60s.

Okay.... perhaps you mentioned the changes when discussing the Driftwood Inn area. It's just I think I remember mention of Krusty's before.

No worries.

I hadn't thought about hurricane damage that could have occurred over time.

The old school drug stores were amazing!

In my area, the pharmacy is no longer the place to go for medical equipment like beds & walkers, etc. One has to go to the outlets that the two main clinics in the county have to offer. The old school drug stores had better prices for the average person than these newer outlets offer.

Not sure ,in use publix which is a part of vero history but not from vero .the oldest publix now is the one on ryanwood.they used to be closed on Sunday along with Woolworth, piggy wiggly,pantry pride.I have no inclination at present to photo publix.If I find the 50s style sign in would in a heart beat.
 
The sign had neons lights that would flash from the bottom up in the center of that wing effect. As you can see most 60ish in appearence.I still find these the last was a closed one in a small town near the center of the state.

Illinois didn't have Publix ....we did have Piggly Wiggly, though! As a little girl, my favorite grandfather would take me with him to pick up groceries when I visited.... they had a cheese selection that was amazing. And of course, ours has always been a cheese-loving household!
