    Of course not everyone thinks Winter Park looks like New England. Until fairly recently it resembled an old line southern town, with the railroad cutting through the middle, with one side filled with large homes of the very wealthy and the other side an extremely poor area. New England style - maybe Mount Dora or the university part of Deland. Interesting is the part of Longwood, near the city hall and the 120 year hotel (now offices) Also maybe to the west towns like Howie in the Hills. Interesting a few sort of New England type m ay be found if you take the old roads to Miami, you wil lfind a town called Indiantown. About 100 plus years ago the uncle of Wallis Simpson The Duchess of Windsor built a house and called it the Seminole Inn/ She stayed there. It is now a sort of bed and breakfast and they show a plaque that states that she was a hostess there. I guess you might think it is sort of New Englandish.

    You should have seen Winter Park before Hurricane Charlie hit in 2004. That was one beautiful city, it'll be a generation yet before all those trees grow back.

    Not Florida, but Starkville, Mississippi is a slice of New England in the Deep South.

    New Urbanism looks like New England have you seen Celebration or Seaside Florida?New Urbanism is a scrubbed version of New England without the annoying Yankee accents.Celebration is narcissistic because the house front facade is twee but the house behind is oversized.

    Celebration has plantation houses which are softened by splitting the columns.Celebration has McMansions in the Italian style for the New York mafia.The Professional Class is a mafia themselves so they are attracted to Celebration with the softened and scrubbed power projection.

    Power tennis has spoiled the sport that was aristocratic with the obligation of the nobility.Obama is power tennis and a predator professional like Hillary Clinton.NPR/PBS is the same I listen and wait for their voice to crack and say I'll get you my pretty.
