I remember this photo! Glad you found it ... great reminder!

Street by it not listed on an old county map.I perused the tax page and found the garage shown with the car is a 1960 built edifice.I thought it was .Those in ground lifts it has are uncommon.Piston is the hydraulic tank and is centered on the lift.

Perhaps there wasn't a street on the old county map because all it was was a dirt path ?

No,1943 topo shows it as paved.I have looked at south Us1 before.it's hard to spot as the usual references as I must count streets or go by name.which would be in the 30s.From north to south starting at Osceola Blvd,Rosewood, Rosedale, Glendale, Citrus.In the map in question some of these,Rosewood,Rosedale and Glendale didn't even touch ,Emerson Rd ,let alone which is west of Dixie Hwy.Finding a reference made it impossible.Old Dixie Hwy then went north and appeared to have hit 23rd st which hit the Barber Bridge of the time.I can look at a city hall map of the time.Arial of 43 says otherwise. ROYAL palm blvd,place was around then.

That's cool to learn that it was paved by 1943. In many small towns & villages, some of the streets might be gravel ... or still dirt... in the early 40's and before.

It's hard to see paved roads unless I can zoom in and get a good photo .

I have a few new stories.Older Williams, Beaty Williams was the class of 1940 and was one who signed the original plaque at the old VBHS.She mentions Macs ,as in Alex MacWilliams sr.he had a restaurant in Sexton Plaza.My mother in law mentioned a diary at a church I have read meters on and attended.I found old images of it and my father in law verified the right building as I asked how it was orientated. It's not an old diary and isn't found on the ww2 topo. It was a marsh there.

Cool story...local 'color,' as they say in the media!

You mentioned that the land used to be a march in that area. Moving into modern day, is your area (and surrounding territory) being plagued by Zika-carrying mosquitoes?

Marsh,we have the right species to carry it.it's the same as the malaria carrier.Mosquito control in that area doesn't spray. Only on the beach ,riverside or the marshes.They hit up mainland areas that are a concern.

The article you linked was very interesting. Controlling areas to the extent possible is a good idea.
