Yup - and the multi - millionaires that can afford that > move in and the non $$$ people get moved out. Sort of a mutant gentrification of the area - at least on the waterfront. Eventually it will find its way to the islands - only a matter of time with a fixed inventory of water front property. I suppose the nature of things although I cannot help but think that Covid sort of accelerated the whole thing. I seem to recall it happening many years ago on the Intercostal in Florida.
