A truly unique book called “Naples Waterfront, Changes in Time” by Todd T. Turrell, tells of the incredible coastal transformation of the Naples area.
Todd is a resident of Naples and a local business owner. His company, Turrell, Hall & Associates, is a marine and environmental consulting firm that has assisted with the development of the Naples waterfront for the past 20 years. As an Ocean Engineer, Todd was worked with numerous local “old timers”, who shared many stories and pictures with him. Many of these local facts and photos have never been published or seen by the public.
Included in this beautiful, limited edition coffee table book are rare antique maps, local history and many tales of fishing, construction, and bootlegging from times past. There is also a section containing clear overlay pages that show today’s communities over historic aerial photographs.
The book received a medal at the Florida Book Awards for non-fiction in 2010.
