Quote:I wonder how long it will be before I call it 295, rather than 9A. It's a way of telling how long someone has lived in the area. I call it Everbank now but for years it was still the Gator Bowl. I still call the whatever building the Gulf Life Tower. There are probably a few more examples I could come up with if I though about it.

 

I'm really going to sound like an idiot when I get deeper into senility.

I still say Gulf Life Building - Independent Life Building - and 295 from the airport to (J. Turner )Butler Blvd  will be 9A to me for a long time I'm sure. 

 

The west inn cantina in Avondale will always be "Monty's" - and that taco place in Atlantic beach will probably be called "where the SunDog was" by me for awhile.   Speaking of Atl. Bch  - Ocean One will always be referred to as "the old SeaTurtle."
