Bright Sun Films what amazes me is the sheer waste. I own some pieces of furniture just like those seen in the resort, which we all know it will not be long before the elements begin affecting them. I know what I paid for those pine Bombay style pine dressers, and I could not afford the armoire's they have to match them. What is the reasoning I wonder in not auctioning these things off. Yes in the long run it is not gonna solve the financial ruin, but seriously do it for respect for the craftsmanship, and the resources of wood, just a sad sad waste in my eyes!!😧😳😔

Well if you think about it, it would kind of make some sense to assume most explorers and their channels likely wouldn't be putting much if any focus at all on the history aspect, since it's not a history focused or based channel, but rather, exploration! Thus the exploring part is what take the emphasis, while the honest likelihood is, they wouldn't know or necessarily even care too much about the history, since that isn't what they're there for in the first place. So honestly, I think a informational and/or historic focused or based exploration channel would be what you should look for, since they'd be the ones focusing on that history you're looking for. Jake here is of the latter form, and he always has been. :)

One way to help the homeless population to get back on their feet is to have them work and restore this resort. This would give them work experience, a place to stay, an address for job applications, a place to pay bills to rebuild their credit, build a community bank with micro-loans, a discount store, training to work in the service industry for other resorts, and a community of people with similar backgrounds that will naturally become a support group. This is not an original idea. There were many places like this during the Great Depression that helped many Americans to get back on their feet. Sometimes all we need is a little room to breathe and heal to build a new future.

kyliemiu And you honestly think they would be considered as a serious candidate for those jobs in that exact moment in their lives? A homeless person has been scarred for life and needs opportunities to transition from homelessness back to being a home owner. An injured person needs a healthy place to recover. If you don't have the money for an address, phone number, a shower, bed, properly nourished, and clothes for those employers dress code you are not going to get a job let alone be keeping it. We need something better and a more robust system other than homeless shelters and soup kitchens. Think of it as an investment with more people paying back into the system and a more effective safety net for those that have been pushed onto the streets. With more and more jobs being automated to the rich getting richer and monopolies getting stronger, we need a better system.

That is exactly why I watch abandoned, I love the history behind it so the picture of what has been going on gets filled in. Unlike others who just show the current state. Perfect, I love it !

I just found this video. I watched it with amazement. Our family owned property in Long Boat Key and I knew The Colony very well. Your video brought real tears remembering that place. I remember the restaurant and more to the point where your video ends just outside the main restaurant was the bar and grill. The burger was worth walking a mile down the beach to get it. Your shot in the area between the restaurant and the pool was the covered and not covered tables used to be. I loved that place. It was always upscale. You could wear athletic gear to the restaurant, but your shirt needed to have a collar. During lunch models from the shops would give fashion shows wearing the clothes and jewelry available at the shops. There was a piano player. Live music. I remember maybe 95-96 the natural event called the "red tide" where this thick algae would flair up in the ocean and kill tons of fish... the dead fish smell was everywhere and guests were choosing not to come because of it. So local business was down. I ate dinner here and looked out a window you show. I remember friends who worked here complaining because business was down that year because of the red tide. We had a condo just down the beach at another resort called Sea Place. We would walk down the beach and have beers and burgers. It was always a trick because you always had to have a collar shirt. I love this video. Thank you for it.

So sad to see the state that it was in just days before demolition and that items could not have been salvaged before hand. I was able to attend an estate sale on the property a few years back and found some mementos. This resort holds great memories for my family. We moved there in the summer of 1974. My father sold suit to Murf Clubber in Buffalo and hired my father to run the clothing store at the resort. Seeing the inside of the loft units really brought back memories. I have family photos of my brother and I hanging out the loft opening.

I'm so glad a major Urbex youtuber got it before they turn it into condos. I can't believe you pulled it off! Security there has been crazy recently. Boy, it's eerie seeing the pool I swam in throughout my childhood, and the beach i built sandcastles on... on an urbex channel. Also, as you added, the tension between the unit owners and Klauber have been making local news headlines or 7 years which most likely explains why so many people's stuff (especially in the 2-story units) has been left behind. On a not-so-nostalgic note, when i was 8, i jumped off that fishing pier during low tide and twisted my angle :")
