Gasparilla Island Early Days - Boca Grande History from the old days. Once in a while, I like to take a look back at Gasparilla Island early days. Boca Grande history is fascinating and the Boca Grande Historical Society can be a terrific place to lose oneself, if only for a little while.

This week the Boca Beacon features a submission from the Boca Grande Historical Society that provides one such enjoyable look:

"A November 1978 article in the St Petersburg Times announced the creation of a new development on Gasparilla Island, to be called the Boca Grande Club. . . . The article projected that the Club would build five units per acre, although zoning would allow 20 units per acre. The Club would therefore be the biggest thing on the island, where the 1970s population was estimated to be 500 people. The developers emphasized, however, that they 'wanted the club to blend in with the island, not change it.'"
