Today's riddle: What is clean when it is black and dirty when it is white? 🤔 (Answer below!)
• Rivertowne Square and brewpub moving forward (newpelican.com) — Deerfield Beach commissioners just advanced a major overhaul of Rivertowne Square, clearing the way for hundreds of apartments, a rebuilt Winn-Dixie, and new shops at SE 10th Street and Federal Highway. They also approved a new commercial building with a brewpub and rooftop games on West Dixie Highway, promising more housing, amenities, and some drainage relief for nearby neighborhoods.
• Shawn Paschall brings Speed and Heart to VSU Football (vsuspectator.com) — A Deerfield Beach native, running back Shawn Paschall has turned childhood pickup games in local neighborhoods into a standout role on Valdosta State's football team. Now a sophomore, he's overcoming injuries, learning patience and blocking, and earning recognition for his speed and determination. His story highlights how grit and heart can carry a smaller South Florida athlete onto a bigger stage.
• East Coast migration to Miami plummets as Florida's housing costs skyrocket (nypost.com) — Deerfield Beach is now cited alongside Miami and nearby cities as no longer the budget-friendly option it once was, with housing costs squeezing out many middle-income movers. Experts say post-Surfside condo reforms, rising insurance, and an influx of wealthy buyers have pushed prices and fees sharply higher. Locals may feel growing pressure as the region's luxury-focused development reshapes affordability.
