Photos from Florida's Capital City (and occasionally a few from other interesting places I have been fortunate enough to visit in my travels!)

Downtown Property
This old building sits on a valuable corner of downtown property located directly across from the Florida Capitol complex. It was built in 1930 and as you can see, one of the signs on the side of it reads "Seminole Tribe of Florida". I did a little research and found out that the Seminole Tribe not only owns the building, but several of the other lots right next to it. The only information I could find about the property, which is currently vacant, stated that at one time there were plans for a hotel, restaurant and meeting facilities to be built on the site, but those plans have been tabled for now. It will be interesting to see what happens.

It will be interesting to see what happens with the building. Great location, it should interest some people.
Excelentes fotografias.
Um abraço e continuação de uma boa semana.
Cool! Hope its a moneymaker for the tribe.
it's a pretty building!
It will be interesting Lois.. it would make a good hotel :)
Maybe the Seminoles will put in a casino ... if they grease the right palms on the Republican side of the legislature! :)
Curious... we'll have to wait and see.
It is a nice looking building. I can see a nice restaurant on that ground floor.
A curious story...
It seems very spacious, would be perfect for a hotel I think.
It's a lovely building, I hope they manage to make something of it. A cultural centre with a restaurant would be cool!
It's a nice looking building!
Those are lovely lights on its walls, Lois! It would make a great restaurant.
It looks like a rather noble building. The tribes here in Oklahoma have bought a lot of property and I have to say they are doing a good job developing it into other things besides casinos (they already have a bunch of casinos)
big teepee
There is a wonderful song about the Seminole Indians...it is a country song and came out around 2001-2. This is a great post! :D
