I have a love of all architecture but especially art deco and mid-century modern.

Sears - Tampa, Florida
2010 East Hillsborough Avenue - Built in 1957 and designed by the firm Weed, Russell and Johnson. Now home to a tech school, this was once a beautiful modern Sears store. See it in its heyday here, here, and here.
I think I remember waiting for the bus sometimes near this building, but the school had a different name I can't remember now. Never imagined it was originally a Sears store.

ReplyDeleteI was pretty shocked when I found out as well.
