Florida AMC movie theater in mall permanently closed amid renovations

The Vero Beach movie theater in the mall closed permanently on Nov. 8. AMC Theatres decided to close the AMC Classic Indian River 24 "based on what will best strengthen the company going forward," according to AMC spokesperson Cassie Kennard. The website directs customers to AMC's theater in Melbourne and Kennard directed them to AMC Port St. Lucie 14 in St. Lucie West. The aging Indian River Mall at 6200 20th St., which opened in 1996 and declined after years of store closures, is being transformed from an indoor mall to mixed-use retail with new outdoor stores and a drive-through restaurant. Demolition for renovations on the east side of the mall began in August. The west section, including the movie theater, was supposed to remain operational, according to Joseph Scarfone of One Investment Group in Pompano Beach. He has been working with the mall owners, DTS Properties II of Illinois.

Sea Pines Hospital evacuated, closed after catastrophic flooding

After serving Brevard County patients for decades, Sea Pines Rehabilitation Hospital in Melbourne is facing an uncertain future after historic flooding forced the facility to close indefinitely. Just days after celebrating 40 years of service to the Space Coast on Oct. 29, the hospital was overwhelmed by floodwater from record-setting rains Nov. 1-2, forcing the evacuation of patients and staff from the 90-bed facility. Sea Pines, a joint venture between Encompass Health and Holmes Regional Medical Center, provides inpatient physical rehabilitation following major illness or injury through intensive physical, occupational and speech therapy programs. Following the storm, hospital officials said all staff are accounted for, and all patients were safely admitted to other medical facilities, or discharged home. “We are enormously grateful for the heroic efforts of our hospital staff and the first responders in ensuring the safety of our patients during this catastrophic weather event,” Pat Tuer, Encompass Health's executive vice president and chief operating officer, said in a news release. “Sea Pines has served the greater Melbourne area for more than 40 years, and we are committed to restoring and enhancing our capacity to do so.” And while the damage to the facility is “substantial,” Tuer said reopening

Crab-Loaded Omelets, Pecan Pancakes And A Bridge View Share One Breakfast At This Florida Waterfront Cafe

I have a firm rule about any omelet stuffed with real crab meat. I order it first and ask questions later. One Florida breakfast spot treats that omelet as a regular menu item, not a special occasion. It shares the menu with crab cake Benedict, pecan pancakes, and biscuits big enough to need a strategy.
