Former Industrial Town Reinvents Itself

"This old Florida Panhandle seaport, once bypassed by travelers on U.S. 98 because of its smelly paper mill, is reinventing itself. Again. Reinventing a town with varied constituencies and their often opposing goals can be tricky. It seems to be working in Port St. Joe, partly because the old is now part of the new. Add a pristine bay, a comparatively remote location, and a local business metamorphosis, and you get a picture of what was and what will be."
