publisher's notes
“Good is the new Great” is the catch phrase we’ve been using at Metro. The economy is tight, but business must go on. We’ve started to see things turn the corner and believe that businesses are starting to see sales return. At Metro, we strive to deliver a quality product that readers enjoy and allow advertisers to reach our engaged and influential audience. In this issue, discover the ladies behind a fun, new game fashioned after the iconic Monopoly. Smith & Associates’ Bob Glaser reveals his thoughts on the real estate market in the Last Word. While the Florida Orchestra Showhouse has closed, Candice Mutschler discovers the trends and designs that made the house a showpiece. When travel calls this summer, consider one of the resorts featured in the Great Florida Escapes. All are an easy drive from the Bay area. Looking ahead, we’ll be working on Metro’s Best for the next issue. If you have a favorite place to eat, shop or play, send us an email to let us know. It just may be a place that deserves the attention of all our readers. Enjoy, Stephen Parag II Publisher/ Editor-in-Chief
