Daytona’s Razzle’s Nightclub Closing After 41 Years

Daytona Beach’s Razzle’s Nightclub is closing for business after over four decades. One of the area’s most locally-known and popular nightlife destinations is in the process of ending its long tenure before becoming a thing of the past. The nightclub was located near the northwestern corner of Seabreeze Boulevard and SR-A1A. Just across from the Seabreeze beach access ramp, the club was a staple of the party culture and spring break activity for years. “For 41 years, Razzle’s has been part of the Daytona Beach story,” said Daytona Beach Mayor Derrick Henry in a Wednesday Facebook post. “Generations of residents and visitors celebrated, danced, and made memories inside its doors. Its closing is a genuine loss, and I sympathize deeply with the owners, the staff, and everyone who called it a second home.” Along with its local fame in Volusia County’s nightclub scene, Razzle’s also found itself as the setting of violent crime on multiple instances in recent years. Four people were injured in a July 2023 shooting at Razzle’s. The City of Daytona Beach responded by increasing security in the area. Mayor Henry pushed back against apparent notions that Daytona Beach’s city leadership played a role in the demise of Razzle’s. He also denied that ‘conditions on the beachside’ played a role. “The larger story is one that families across this country already know. Americans are tightening their belts,” Henry continued. “Rent, groceries, insurance, and gas all cost more than they did a few years ago, and when household budgets get tight, the things young and older people alike enjoy, such as a concert, a weekend trip, or a night out, are often the first to come off the table. Nightlife is changing across Florida and the nation, and clubs and entertainment venues are feeling that pressure everywhere. That is a hard economic reality, and it is not one that city government created.”

Joby, Orlando International Airport Inaugurate Air Taxi Vertipad

Orlando International Airport (KMCO) this week inaugurated what the Greater Orlando Aviation Authority (GOAA) and Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) described as a first-of-its-kind site for evaluating electric air taxis. GOAA, which operates Orlando International, said Thursday that the airport hosted demonstrations of Joby Aviation’s electric vertical takeoff and landing (eVTOL) aircraft prototype. The flights took place at what GOAA described as a newly constructed “vertipad,” the precursor to a future hub for commercial eVTOL operations. It aims to begin operations there by 2030, though it had previously targeted 2028 . The demonstration was hosted by FDOT and according to GOAA used routes and procedures jointly developed with the FAA and NASA. It included participation from Orlando air traffic controllers. According to FlightAware , Joby’s eVTOL prototype conducted three short hops at the vertistop, each lasting two minutes or less. “By bringing together government, industry, and air traffic partners at MCO, we are helping turn an emerging transportation concept into a safe, practical reality that can strengthen connectivity, create new opportunities, and shape how people move across Florida and beyond,” said Lance Lyttle, CEO of GOAA, in a news release . From Vertipad to Vertiport GOAA said the vertipad, located

Pinsa Fire to take over famously tiny downtown building

.oembed-frame { width: 100%; height: 100%; margin: 0; border: 0; } One of the best things about big cities is those little takeout pizza joints that are barely larger than the order window. Leesburg is getting its own dinky pizza spot. Pinsa Fire , a Roman-style pizza eatery based in Clermont, plans to open a flagship location at a characteristic tiny building at 404 W. Main Street, Leesburg. Owner Thomas Cerra bought the downtown Leesburg building in September 2025. What's distinctive about Cerra's pizzas Pinsa Fire uses for its crust a blend of type-zero wheat flour, rice flour and sourdough. A 72-hour cold fermentation and the combination of ingredients creates "a light, airy, and crispy texture that is a delightful departure from traditional pizza," says the company's website, adding that their pizzas are low in calories, gluten, they're non-GMO, and that Pinsa offers vegan options. "Absolutely delicious," said reviewer Marie Blackford, praising Pinsa Fire for "a crust that holds up the delicious toppings but is light enough to not overwhelm." Pinsa Fire uses " small chamber electric pizza ovens with internal combustion systems that aid in giving a wood fired taste without the need for wood itself," Cerra explained to
