To Allyson Sullivan the sun sets a little<br />

brighter in Delray Beach. She has not only<br />

lived here for the past 30 years, but she has<br />

been a realtor for 22 of those years.<br />

Allyson has seen it all and heard a lot. “As a realtor in town I<br />

meet many people from out of town and many locals. Some<br />

of them consider me to be a resource for all things Delray<br />

Beach,” said the Delray Beach Lang Realty agent.<br />

Because of this Sullivan wants to share some of her favorite things<br />

about Delray. Some of the them may surprise you – but not to Sullivan.<br />

She tends to look on the bright side – even with sunglasses on.<br />

“I love the small town beach vibe of Delray and many things that<br />

people complain about. I actually love the bridge and never mind<br />

getting stuck in traffic when the bridge is open.”<br />

Sullivan also loves watching the trains go by and the traffic (yes<br />

you heard that right). She also enjoys all the hustle and bustle of<br />

our little beach town.<br />

On the side of land use and real estate, Sullivan’s quest for perfection<br />

also lands squarely on the ground.<br />

“I love that there are so many types of various real estate options<br />

- there is something for everyone. I think Delray has really nailed<br />

the concept of new urbanism.”<br />

What she means is the design movement that promotes environmentally<br />

friendly habits such as creating walkable neighborhoods,<br />

offering a wide range of housing and adding creative venues<br />

and options.<br />
