It’s a lingering eyesore from Hurricane Ian in the heart of downtown Fort Myers Beach. We should find out today exactly when the destroyed Lynn Hall Park bathrooms will be demolished. The building is owned by Lee County and in 2021 had gone through a $450,000 renovation and upgrade before the storm.
Lee County is expecting to demo the building very soon, probably in the next few days. Once we know the exact date of the demo we will share that with you and we expect to cover it live.
On Beach Talk Radio Saturday, November 11th, Lee County Commissioner Brian Hamman said the restrooms will be rebuilt. However, due to the permitting process, it could take years, which frustrates Hamman. Last week the Lee County Board of Commissioners approved a resolution to rebuild the restroom facility months after County Manager Dave Harner said they would not be rebuilt and the county would be moving in more bathroom trailers.
There are expected to be more bathroom trailers brought into Lynn Hall Park after the building is removed, according to Hamman. They will remain in pace as the county goes through the plans and process to rebuild the facility.
Years? Pretty hard to believe. It just bathrooms, not living quarters or a restaurant. Good grief.
