Most of the residents living in Hunters Point heeded the mandatory evacuations ahead of Hurricane Milton’s landfall but Fulford, 76, stayed behind with wife, Sueann, just as they did during Hurricane Helene last month. The storm obliterated vast parts of Florida, including the surrounding areas of Hunters Point like Anna Maria Island and Bradenton. Rebecca Blackwell/APMilton knocked out power for more than 2.5 million customers across the state, including in Manatee County, where Hunters Point homes are located. Julian Quinones/CNNWhen Gobuty started the design process for Hunters Point, it was imperative the homes be able to withstand Category 5 hurricanes. Instead, Milton drove the worst storm surge across a 65-mile stretch of coast between Siesta Key and Fort Myers Beach.
