This is the north side of the Bloxham Building located in downtown Tallahassee. I have always liked it because it looks so much different from the many other state office buildings in this capital city. It was built in 1925 and was originally a grammar school. Purchased by the state in 1964, it was named in honor of two term Florida Governor William Bloxham, who served from 1881-85 and 1897-1901.

Really love this old building! Love the old wooden doors too.
It makes me think of a wedding cake, and I mean that in the nicest way possible. Thanks for sharing it with us.
It looks beautiful, so well preserved.
Such a handsome building!
It's a beautiful building, Lois, and the Spanish Moss in the foreground adds so much to the composition.
Lovely building. I like those details.
It is a pretty and interesting and well-maintained building, Lois.
Nicely maintained. It's good to see such rustic structures still being used and taken care of. Amazing, keep sharing!

This building is so charming! Love the soft pinkish colors :D
It does look more like a school than a government building. Reminds me as to how we should probably send most of our politicians back to school for a good dose of Constitutional and other American history!
