| Jax Car Sales Jacksonville, FL |
David Johnson's St. Johns, FL |
 |
 |
|
The Jax Car Sales building was constructed in 1969. Does anyone know what was here originally?
David Johnson's looks like it might have been a restaurant or part of a motel at one time. The building appeared to be abandoned as of 2009. |
| Sanford Auto Company Sanford, FL |
|
 |
 |
| The Sanford Auto Company was a repair garage. It appeared to be vacant in 2009. Does anyone know if this was a car showroom originally or if it was used for some other purpose? |
| Barrier Islands Gazette Treasure Island, FL |
|
 |
 |
| I believe the Barrier Islands Gazette building previously housed a real estate office. Before that, it may have been used as a Chamber of Commerce. Can anyone confirm the history of this building? |
