Weston, Celebrating 25 Years It’s hard to imagine that the aerial above (facing south), circa 1983, is the same place we are living today. Yes, the development in the lower area of the box is Bonaventure, and the area starting to be developed at the top of this photo is what is today Windmill Ranches and Country Isles. Twenty five years later Weston has proved that, when done with proper respect to the environment, a world class city can spring from anywhere. |

Making Public Restrooms Even More Accessible Sometimes it’s the little things that make a big difference. Long time Weston resident, Lynn Wolfson can attest to that as she brings about awareness of the simple changes that can be done to public restrooms that make a world of difference for individuals with certain medical conditions – such as those who have feeding tubes or ostomies. The City of Weston is in the process of making these simple changes to all ADA restrooms in City buildings, with updates to the park restrooms soon after. |
