I am originally from Cleveland, Ohio where they obliterated all the best buildings and replaced them with generic high-rises. I worked with the team that installed fire protection systems in these generic buildings. My most lump-in-my-throat moment was when I saw the rotunda of a bank that I had often enjoyed seeing as a child taken down and marked for demolition--an unseakable architectural crime. I am so happy to see that Tampa has chosen to proserve the old buildings!<br /><br />Right now, I live in Winter Haven, FL and am seriously studying Tampa in hopes of someday moving there.Georgene Naymik (g.naymik@gmail.com)noreply@blogger.com
