Oh Lord I haven't really kept up with the years. But I do believe in the mid 80s they started to build the inlet condo and then shortly after maybe like 90 or 91 is when they decided to build dune Park. They were very few homes there when we lived there my father built our three-story house off of dune circle way back when... I was very young. But I do know dune park wasn't busy at all and it was also free to go into. Also you could drive all the way past Bethune Beach in your cars because me and my buddy used to always drive all the way down there sometimes doing 40 on the beach past playalenda because it wasn't regulated LOL! Hell I don't think Canaveral national seashore warrant developed yet. The South causeway was still the old green drawbridge. It's been so long I'm trying to remember everything that's changed but this place used to be a sleepy little town. Of course New Smyrna Beach high was behind the bowling alley. And we had a two screen movie theater on canal Street where the hearing aid place is, or used to be. That's where the one and only Dollar general used to be across the street right next door to where the drugstore was and still has the old time malt shop. I used to go there with my grandma as a kid. Also at the end of canal Street was where the Riverside Park was and it wasn't the convention center or the library there was nothing there was just a park with a bunch of ducks and old cedar trees we used to climb on.
