    I was exploring James A. Nance Park when I discovered this historic marker at the edge of the…read moreparking area. The marker is part of the Florida Historical Marker Program, one of the Division of Historical Resources' most popular and valued public history programs. The markers raise awareness of Florida's cultural history while enhancing the enjoyment of historic sites for residents and tourists. The blue historic markers tell the stories of the people and places that were important to Florida's history and they can be found in front of schools, forts, roads, archaeological sites, battlefields, cemeteries, churches, and historic buildings that once existed like this one. Historic Marker F-730 was installed in 2011 by the Brevard County Tourist Development Council and the Florida Department of State. In 1923 the Indialantic Casino was built on the site of what is now the southeast corner of James A. Nance Park. The casino was a two-story Mediterranean Revival style building designed by architect William Christen and developed by Herbert Earle. The casino opened on December 22, 1923, and although called a casino there was no gambling involved. Instead the building had shops, an Olympic-size saltwater pool, a landmark concrete diving tower, and wading pools. It became the center of social activity in Melbourne and hosted club meetings, socials, and galas, wedding receptions, banquets, and cotillions. Special events included a Midnight New Year's Eve dinner, a Fourth of July Celebration, and the Miss Melbourne and Miss Florida Beauty Pageants of 1925. Weekly rates in 1924 for room and board of an ocean view room was $20 for singles and $35 for doubles. During WWII the casino's pool was used to train military personnel from the Banana River Naval Station. The casino was renovated in 1942. In 1944 Karl Abbott purchased it changed the name to the Bahama Beach Club. The casino then became a private club from 1949 until it was purchased by the Town of Indialantic in 1967. Following storm damage, the building was torn down in 1970 by the Indialantic Fire Department.

    As a long time resident I would love to give this City a higher rating but after living here for…read moreover a decade I am frustrated by history constantly repeating itself and even getting worse than I ever imagined. The City is run by an egotistical Mayor with a mediocre career in the military and flaunts it like he was a 5 star general. He and the other City Council members(minus Mr Johnson) vote according to the developers lining their pockets the most while seemingly forgetting who they represent, the taxpayers. They have a real spending problem and they don't spend the money on infrastructure. They convinced their constituents that a 5 year road bond costing millions of dollars would be completed under budget and on time and almost 10 years later the roads are worse than ever and the road bond quietly slipped away while we got stuck with the bill. There was actually a book about the malfeasance written about the City, 30 years ago called the "Good Ole Boys" and th corruption that was happening then is still happening today even though we fought to get a better City Council the nonsense continues. We even have a notorious member of the council Chandler Langevin who has made National headlines for his racists, bigoted remarks and white supremacy platform. It is disgusting that this City cannot get more than 12 percent of the population to actually get out and vote to ensure a bright future for our children. We need solid leadership and infrastructure without constantly raising taxes to pay outrageous CITY SALARIES for not doing anything!! This is my home. I am not leaving but I will continue to speak out until the corruption in this City is replaced with competence, integrity and equality for all.

    VERY poor customer service. Had a question regarding garbage service for a business and was on hold…read morefor a long time and then was transferred to a different extension and this continued a couple of times until i was disconnected.
