Winter Park is classic historic luxury. A true hidden gem within Florida immune to the hyper urbanization & monopolization of many parts of the state.

Christian, great channel. Love your high standards. One request: Able to do a video on Phoenix, AZ? The President of UCF and mayor of Orlando visited that city for years for inspiration. Phoenix is the most master planned city in the country. Perfect grid system spanning 200 ave west and 200 streets east. It is the shining city on a hill, globally, literally for mathematical precision to city and street and urban planning. If you can learn from it and use your networks to advocate for that kind of development in orlando We can save our fast growing cities from becoming miserable stand still traffic zones like what happened to LA

This is shiny new objects Anti community

Is it safe to live there yet? Has the gentrification worked???

These Beaches can't compare to Hallandale Beach Florida and Hollywood Beach Florida, fort Lauderdale Beach, Miami Beach ❤

I lived in St Pete Beach for a half year or so spring-summer 2023. The Rays were the hottest team around to start the season. I couldn't talk ANYONE into going to a game. The residents of this area are not interested in supporting this team, except watching on TV. It's a shame, because they are typically good. They should move to Orlando.

Awesomeness! Thank you!

Traffic is horrible nothing to see here!

I moved here in 2014 it was pretty awesome, now 2024 downtown near the Lynx station has gotten worse especially at night, I do like the option of being able to take a Bus (although I wish they were 24 hours, even if you had to hire some guards from 8 P.M. to 5:00 A.M. and some more routes ) I have been wanting to go to Universal and haven't made it there yet, I should have went when I was homeless, I had a little bit more money from being homeless than now living in an apartment, some people go homeless because of how high rent is ,

Not sure when you are on the parkway but when I drive it in the afternoon it is crowded.

Thinking of moving to Lakeland this summer from Miami , great video !!

place blows now, traffic is out of control, stop moving here man, y'all ruined it

I think the stadium stays in St. Pete. When I considered the potential growth that it could gender St Pete and Pinellas County, collectively, I think the Ray’s would even benefit as well. Having the Rays leave St Pete might be major disaster for the ongoing development that’s happening. For years, I never thought St Pete could be what it’s become. At the close of the video you presented a possibility that I think could work. Since the new stadium would be built some yards away from the older stadium, simply redevelopment the older stadium-making it an additional piece to the entire development experience. West Shore Plaza in Tampa is being redeveloped. Renovate and redevelopment the older stadium as part of the overall project experience. Tampa Bay Ray’s leaving St Pete? Nope: not at all. There’s so much to consider here-I do think the proposition you posed at the end of this video is the better choice. It’s a tough decision. As a whole, I’d hate to see St Pete and Pinellas lose this. Where are the chieftains of smart business and good governance? I don’t see them at the table at all.

one thing is for sure the current stadium even before the hurricane damage is a dump.

Great video

The show deserves to stay

Anna Maria Island is the best

Awesome video, thanks for the update on the area. lol I was hoping you’ll tried love bird. So who has the best pizza in Winter Haven 🤔

Even though the Water Ski Show is gone from Legoland, I believe that it still takes place on the 3rd Saturday of every month in Winter Haven on Lake Silver at around 6:00 PM

Thanks for the information, that's such great news. Makes me feel so much better of having winter haven as my new home town. I heard that they're building a target across the street. Can you look into that also.

People here are calling Florida the "Stink on the Brink." Why is that?

Traffic in Central Florida is utter hell......u can't drive from Orlando to Lakeland in under an hour on a good day, much less make it to St Petersburg ....it's better to stay home and watch them on TV.....

The owner of the Rays is really an idiot. He does not know how to build a winning team and does not care. Anytime a player is good they get traded to a better team. The Rays are like the farm team for the MLB. Attendance is pitiful, the crowd enthusiasm is mediocre and that's all due to the owner not caring. I do not believe the city or county should spend a dime rebuilding the roof of the existing stadium or fund a new one. St Petersburg should use that money to fix it's infrastructure which is failing. Let the Rays owner sucker some other city into paying for a stadium.

I love baseball, do I want to lose it? hell no, but I,ve had it up to here with this greedy gimme gimme owner , multi millionaire, demands the city pay, no way, open up your check book once in a while, maybe show the fans you have left that you care about them and all the issues that some folks are still trying to put their lives back together after two terrible storms, so my point, help the people who need help, then help the greedy millionaire

St Petersburg doesn't deserve the Ray's but I pray they stay . The community needs them , they just don't know they need them because some think that their business will bring people to the area. Lol NO !! Not like the Ray's and Tropicana Field do on average every year . God bless the USA

In the history of the world has a stadium done anything but lose money, and has never been paid for. Let the owners pay for a new stadium if they want it, they end up bending the taxpayers over for every dime they make on parking concessions and any events. It’s not affordable and no one would take this deal if they had to themselves. Byeeeee..

Enough of billionaire welfare 😮 yup

Good video post and thumbs up, which I almost gave you a thumbs down because frankly I'm so over this story. The Tampa Bay Devil Rays will always have a special place in my heart. Even though as a Detroit Tigers fan I can't stand them. I have loved everything about all of the expansion franchises in baseball since or around my birth. From the Toronto Blue Jays, Montreal Expos, San Diego Padres, Seattle Mariners, Milwaukee Brewers (relocate), Kansas City Royals, Texas Rangers (relocate), Miami Marlins, Colorado Rockies, Arizona Diamondbacks and Tampa Bay Devil Rays. Each team has been special to what I love about baseball. The Rays play in a very complicated region and have not been a draw as you've mentioned.

St Pete is a legendary spring training city. That's how it should have stayed. I think that is where it should go back to now.

I just wish they'd build something like Camden Yards and PNC park.

This started in the mid 80's, it opened in 1990. I was still in middle school when they started building it, I remember watching it go up. Hillsborough did make an offer to the team to build in Tampa, but they Rays declined because they would have to put up more money, and they control all that land at the Trop. Once they lose that control, they will try to take advantage of another market who will give them what they want.

Big stadiums all over America empty.Look at Camping World in Orlando. The rolling stones came there and did not sell out. How about buying a $20.00 beer or paying $50.00 to park?

Bring the Rays to Jacksonville!

They will do fine in TAMPA

That proposed ballpark between Sea World and the Orange county convention center has got to be the best option,by far.Orlando has the tourists year round and its in the middle of the state so it will draw from all around.If I had to choose where to put it St.Pete would be at the bottom,Tampa second and that location on I Drive in Orlando with the Beachline expressway right there,convention center surrounded by hotels,Sea World and Aquatica,the new Epic Universe park right there with a future Brightline station and the other Universal parks and Disney 10 minutes away,are you kidding me,why put it anywhere else.

Tampa doesn't deserve a baseball team if it can't even support its team in the playoffs during a regular weekday playoff game.

Bring a Rays fan I can say that I am not a fan of St. Pete, or Pinellas county. I would like them to move across the bay to Tampa or Ybor City.

Despicable history, even for baseball. I just hope the new stadium isn't built on a sinkhole.

It's up to Tampa now....if much smaller Stinebrener field is not sold out for every Rays home game then that proves that it is not the St. Petersburg location preventing larger attendance figures.

The Rays are a private business and should pay their own bills. Taxpayers do not need stadiums...wealthy private business owners do.

I hope the devil rays stay in st pete

I think its weird how some things seem to happen when certain things are wanted in a certain environment. Whatever the people want, they should go with that.

Very few fans decide whether or not to attend games based on stadium age. New stadiums are 90% vanity projects.

This is not about baseball. This is all about redevelopment rights. If the Rays have the right to those properties around the potential stadium, why would they leave. This is the deal they have. There are no other deals that would satisfy their timeline.

Rays organization can't afford to fix the roof but wants the city to give 350 millions???? Pathetic. Mlb needs to take over

maybe they should buy 175k dolls named melody that will cure loneliness at the games....

The reality is we WILL find out this season if anybody shows up to games in Tampa at the temporary stadium. Personally I just don't think Floridians are very interested in going to baseball games. We like watching it on TV but there's too many other things going on. look up the Miami Marlins nobody shows up to those games either.

Decent video, terrible title. St. Pete will be just fine if the Rays leave.

They should 100% move to Tampa. I have a feeling they'll see how great their turnout is in the yankee stadium and decide to move here. Of course I'm a little biased because I live in Tampa Heights but still... Haha

First, Tampa does not want the Rays. Tampa had the opportunity to relocate the Rays there, but Tampa would not give in financially for the Rays, which I felt was a stupid move by Tampa. Second, St. Petersburg, FL does not need the Rays. St. Petersburg has so much potential for growth in the Trop Field area without MLB baseball. Just walk from downtown to the baseball field and you will see it for yourself. The Rays need Tampa Bay area because there is no other sizable location (3 million +) in the U.S., albeit Salt Lake City, Utah (2.5 million) interested in paying billions, 2.5 billion for a new stadium. Third, if small , but growing Jacksonville, FL could fund $750 million for an NFL team that plays one of its home games in another country, St. Petersburg and Pinellas should fund the Rays, also!
