DOWNTOWN FORT MYERS
In Downtown Fort Myers, large groups of people gathered to ring in the New Year. It’s what businesses in the area told us they hoped for.
There was no ball drop and no dancing in the streets, but it was something.
“It’s slower compared to last year, but it’s to be expected,” Luanne Brownell said.
It did not keep people from going out to say goodbye to a year they will never forget.
“We gotta open the door at 2020 at midnight and let it all out and then 2021 let it all in,” Brownell said.
