St. Augustine news with a bite.

The nation's oldest city — and our home base. Watchdog reporting on city hall, traffic, restaurants, and the absurdity of life in St. Augustine.

St. Augustine is the oldest city in the country and it behaves like it: narrow streets built for horses, a downtown that fills up every weekend, and a city commission that has been arguing about parking since roughly the Spanish. This is our home beat, and most of what we publish starts here.

We cover the same things the other outlets cover — commission votes, road closures, restaurant openings and closings, development on the west side, hurricane season — and we write it the way people here actually talk about it. The reporting is real. The framing has teeth.
