Amazing! I would never have thought it housed navy pilots in the 40s.

I wonder what a typical apartment inside is like. The exterior is impressing.

I really do have a preference for older structures. If I'm working on one, I prefer that the bones be solid (keeps the overall costs down).

You have "legs to walk out things" ? Excellent! It's always a lovely day when one has legs!

I have walked out 8 to 10 mile routes.that route this apartment is on is such a route.I literally circle back to my truck as I have planned it .I finish a quarter mile from it.I took this while I was walking back as it predates ww2 or is close to it View attachment 8377 View attachment 8378

I can understand the Spanish influence, but the moorish influence? I guess it would depend upon the backgrounds of the architect and the building committee at the time of the designing process.

Yes.st Helens has a moorish influence. Remember the arabs held Spain up to a few years prior the landing of Columbus at Freeport, Bahamas
 
I have posted one or two with the moorish influence.

The church appears to be in great shape, considering its age. Out of idle curiosity, what denomination is it?

Very true. During the same time frame, arabs were in Portugal as well. The Portuguese threw 'em out, without assistance from other countries.

I have not got into Portuguese architecture.there's not any here that I know off.if so likely Miami having a large Brazilian populace will have those. Vero has a few art deco stuff.I have to photo those.
