The older structures have such character and charm!
I'm suprised, it was that easy to make them out.the one shown is a historic building.there is one that goes back to 1740
 
That historic building has tall ceilings, which quite possibly was a tin ceiling at some point. Hard wood floors.... wood trim ... I can almost see how it was originally.

No worries. I've studied a bit of architectural books over the years - came in handy with renovations and rehabs of houses and other structures - so I can have a fair idea of how the earlier structures were designed inside. Of course, I've seen where the interiors were trimmed out in styles I hadn't considered. So it's always fun to learn (if possible) how the structures looked originally.
 
Ah I have got one or a few,ww2 stuff
 
The heff,is noNE other then Hugh Hefner. The rec center that is in is still used as such and has a restaurant in it.

So cool, that poster by Hef :thumbsup

Is the base at which the rec center still active? Or, is the rec center now part of the community's property?

The base like camp blanding is used by the state national guard.ft.Lee is also nearby and has some ww2 stuff.
 
Looks like: "Now Serving Meals"
That makes sense.the place was built in 36,it's possible it was made into a restaurant. I will post the same angle of her at present.you can make out the garage area with the bay.it's fully open. Then but not now.it's been modified alot.
 
So many of old gas stations have seen renewed life as different businesses.

I miss full service gas stations.........

Siffords here has one.there is one near ft pickett as well
 
There are none in my area. :shrug

It was interesting, during the time of mass transition to self-serve-only-stations, those stations that tried to remain full service charged only 5-cents more per gallon of gas. To me, that extra 5-cents was worth it. Saved me time!
