From the Post: City's Casino is "historic" again (?), more on THAT lottery ticket "in western Lake Worth", and where did that plane crash?

This year-in-review 'news' is on the heels of The Palm Beach Post's editorial page referring to the South Florida National Cemetery "in Lake Worth" which isn't in Lake Worth. The zoning map of the City is readily available using this link and the City's Wikipedia page is more accurate then the information the paper has access to. For instance, the editor's might be interested in this from the Wiki page: "The main campus of Palm Beach State College is located in unincorporated Lake Worth."

The editors at the Post don't do reporter Kevin Thompson any favors in this 2015 year-end review of the goings-on in Greenacres and Lake Worth (the two cities the reporter covers). Two of the big highlights didn't occur in either city.

The unclaimed $15 million lottery ticket sold at "Morrison Avenue east of Military Trail in western Lake Worth" wasn't in "western" Lake Worth. That location is outside the City in unincorporated Palm Beach County, or if you prefer, suburban Lake Worth. And the plane crash "just east of the Lake Worth Drive-In" is also located east of Greenacres, south of Palm Springs, and north of Atlantis. But, again, the Lake Worth Drive-In is not in Lake Worth:

The Lake Worth Drive-In is located a stones throw from Palm Springs and not near "western Lake Worth".

And the Lake Worth Casino building is "historic" again according to the Post:

Our new "charming" Casino was constructed on the site of the former historic structure (which was 94% demolished).

The Gulf Stream hotel is indeed a historic structure. Our newly "renovated" Casino is not. Somewhere in that pile of sand in the image above is what remained after the original building was mostly demolished. This is what I refer to as "the big lie". The Casino complex is a miserably failed project but the "visionaries" who pushed it through will never accept that truth. Who exactly are those "visionaries"?

The people in the photograph above aren't laughing any more. And neither are the City's residents who are left with the huge bill.

Here is another line from the City's Wiki page:

Several geographical features in Palm Beach County somewhat confusingly share the name "Lake Worth."

The Palm Beach Post, our paper of record, isn't doing much to help end this confusion. If anything, they're making it worse.
