In 1966 Cape Publications founded the TODAY newspaper - a daily newspaper serving Brevard County. Over the next 20 years, TODAY continued to grow and add more products and services to meet the ever-changing needs of the community. To reflect the changing times and keep up with the county's growth, on August 26, 1985, we officially changed our name to FLORIDA TODAY.

In 1986 we moved from a building in Cocoa into our current location at Gannett Plaza. A 28-acre National Wildlife Federation Backyard Wildlife Habitat, Gannett Plaza is a safe haven for the birds, animals, reptiles and plants that have always made their home here. Surrounded by nine satellite dishes, our facility is an impressive 191,000 square foot building made of glass and steel.

As a member of the Gannett Company's extensive list of daily newspapers, we are also one of more than 30 print sites for USA TODAY, the nation's newspaper. We operate 24 hours a day, seven days a week, 52 weeks a year. Our main plant in Melbourne is centrally located within the county and we maintain a presence throughout the Space Coast with bureau offices in Titusville, Palm Bay, Merritt Island and Sebastian.

In addition to reporting the daily news, we publish five weekly and four monthly community newspapers which are tailored for distinct neighborhoods within Brevard.

Since the first edition rolled off the press, our mission has remained the same. Our goal is to be the #1 Source of News and Information for Florida's Space Coast. We strive to maintain excellence and to report the news fairly and accurately.
