Talk:Cocoa Beach, Florida

Sister City
An editor has commented that he was sure CB did not participate in the sister city biz anymore. Can this be deleted? Never had a reference to start with. Student7 (talk) 12:05, 17 October 2008 (UTC)

Rick Martel
It looks like Martel was only billed as being from Cocoa Beach. From what I found, he was born in Canada and retired there. Perhaps he did live in Cocoa Beach while he was wrestling, but I can't find anything to confirm it, so I've hidden the mention for now.

Rick Martel did live in Cocoa Beach in the late 80s and early 90s. He lived in a canal front home on West Point Drive on the south end of town, about a mile up the street from where I live now. He had a boat he used on the Banana River. Unfortunately for him, he did not have he proper gear on his boat one day when he had a routine inspection from the Marine Patrol. (fortunately for us) This resulted in a public record of the event under his real name. http://webinfo4.brevardclerk.us/facts/d_caseno.cfm?CaseNumber=05-1990-IN-002290-AXXX-XX

Also, the Houston Astros never played a game in Cocoa Beach. The games were played at Astro/Cocoa stadium (now called Cocoa Expo) west of the City of Cocoa (not cocoa Beach). I attended many of those games with my grandfather as a child. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.33.136.252 (talk) 02:25, 7 July 2009 (UTC)

Although being born in Quebec City, Quebec, this man was said to be from Cocoa Beach, Florida during his career.

Hometown: 	Lac-Beauport, Quebec City 2002: Rick Martel is now involved real-estate and lives in Lac-Beauport, suburb of Quebec City, QC, Canada. Culicidae (talk) 20:14, 26 June 2009 (UTC)

Picture of Glass Bank
We need a picture of the Glass Bank in the history subsection IMO. Doesn't have to be recent but Wikimedia has to own the picture! Student7 (talk) 20:51, 6 February 2014 (UTC)

"Orlando's Closest Beach"
Cocoa Beach advertises itself as this, when in reality Playalinda Beach is 1-2 miles closer (4-5 miles closer if you take the faster toll roads to Cocoa). This probably isn't worth mentioning, but I'm putting this here preventatively, since we should also not state as fact that Cocoa is Orlando's closest beach. --NE2 12:23, 29 November 2014 (UTC)


 * Thanks for discussing it. Each article is stand-alone. No place in Wikipedia is a gateway for other places. Whatever is Orlando's closest beach should tentatively be in WikiTravel or some other site, not in Wikipedia. Thanks. Student7 (talk) 18:54, 5 December 2014 (UTC)
