Vanderbilt Beach abuts the Gulf of Mexico along the northern rim of Naples, Florida. The area is increasingly dominated by hi-rise residential condominiums. Such is the market at the moment that units in new buildings are sold out months before construction starts. Four hundred thousand dollars may get you a unit, but not one with a good Gulf prospect.
Further south one gets into parts of the city where large homes dot the shoreline, relics of the old days. Hereabouts the game is to purchase one of these arks, tear it down, and build an even more immense but ultramodern house. Soon it will be possible to appreciate the old Naples only by looking at photographs.
