Since September 1565, people have been landing and remaining in St. Augustine, establishing it as America’s oldest continually occupied European settlement. It was first inhabited by the Spaniards, then the English, the Spaniards again, followed by pre-Victorian Americans in 1821. Rarely is ownership of a possession so disputed, without having great appeal, beauty, and value. St. Augustine has all of those traits, whether in the eyes of a real estate owner, political leader, or vacationer.
You,
like many others, aspire to call your very own private island
"home." Lets get real: It probably is not going to happen in
this economy or any other...unless, you tweak the dream, just a little.
We show you where you can realistically live with the iguanas. 
Not long after Katrina hit New Orleans, my own nightmares about effects of the devastation on that city, the place of my birth, started. I was supposed to have been in The Big Easy at the time of the storm, but luckily was unable to travel due to an illness in my family. Despite being safely in the Northeast as the turmoil hit, my little southern city was all I could think about. I felt as if I had somehow let her down by not being there to share in her pain.
A castle-like façade looms darkly above hip Fairmount Street, in the youthfully inhabited and resurrected section of Philadelphia known as “Art Museum.” The area’s moniker is obviously derived from its proximity to the Philadelphia Museum of Art, where Rocky first famously ran the steps. Once upon a time, in 1829, the location was about a mile and a half from the city of Philadelphia. The urban environment has now enveloped the structure, surrounding it with industry, residences and icons of art and culture.
