One North Main Street - The Winter Garden Heritage Museum is housed in the 1918 Atlantic Coast Line Depot.






I had to include this picture mainly because I had an HO scale model train as a wee lad and it was Chessie System engine and caboose.

Hubbard Company - Bremen, Georgia

117 Gordon Street - There are a couple of things I really like about this industrial building.  The first is the script logo on the side of the building.  The other is the great entrance to the building.  I can't believe they didn't put the logo on the entrance pylon.  It's perfectly suited for signage.
