3. For Your Information
Palm Coast was once owned by ITT and they had a plan for a city...a
retirement community with controlled growth. They planned the
layout, sewer and water and basically how to make the town 'user
friendly'. It was later sold and the City was born, but the concept
stayed the same...well, sort of. We do have controlled, planned
growth, but we aren't a retirement community anymore! Our county is
in the fastest growing county in the nation...and Palm Coast is
THE central point.
Daytona Beach
Daytona Beach, famous as the "World Center of Racing" and home of
NASCAR, is part of the East Central Florida greater metropolitan area.
Daytona Beach is the best known of the seven area communities.
The main artery that passes by the racetrack was even renamed from
"Volusia Avenue" to "International Speedway Boulevard."
Although the wide 23-mile stretch of white sandy beach is still the
biggest attraction here, with over 8 million visitors flocking to the area
every year, the metro area is rapidly changing from event Mecca to
family oriented resort destination. Historical sites like the Main Street
Pier, the Oceanfront Boardwalk and the Clocktower in Oceanfront
Park add to the appeal of this exciting city.
There are also tons of entertainment and shopping centers in the
area -- be sure to buy souvenirs for the people back home, because
they'll want some of the nice items you can pick up in Daytona
Beach, for certain!

theme park, including the EPCOT Center and

one of the oldest attractions in the area.

Florida, which is the second largest university
in Florida.
Saint Augustine
St. Augustine is the USA's oldest city. It is
also considered to be one of the most
charming and quaint cities in Florida. St.
Augustine has a beautiful historic district with
cobblestone streets, cafes, bars, unique
shops and bed and breakfast hotels. If you
have a passion for antiques, hand crafted
gifts, blown glass, arts and crafts, fine arts, or
