Well....I STILL haven't made it over to either the Moon Garden site or the Moon Islander dress shop. I'm starting to remember why I never got any pictures of the Moon Garden.....I just can't seem to squeeze out a couple hours of free time.

However, thanks to TikiTomD's post on another thread, I started checking out the property appraisers website. They have an aerial shot of the Moon Garden site:

The walls were still up, but the roof was gone, you can tell by the shadows they cast. I don't know if this was during destruction (my guess would be yes, as if the roof collapsed, it would still be there) or not. You can make out the fountain or pool out front.

Interesting side note: While looking for this, this parcel shares the same address as the parcel behind it, which has a house and 2 storage buildings. Google search brings us this:

http://www.remax.com/property/82348949-60490585/6290-N-Us-Highway-1-Fort_Pierce-FL-34946/

Description states it was built in 1982, the same year Moon moved back to Ft. Pierce and it has the circle window out front.....I'm guessing it's the home he built when he retired.
