 Homestead, Florida
1020 Homestead Blvd

 

Key among the features that make Homestead worth a look is the Gate Lodge-esque canopy. Beverly, the owner's sister, indicated that its future is in doubt. The once Orange roofed canopy obstructs emergency vehicles from passing through the main entrance. Recently an emergency call was placed when a woman went into labor, and the emergency responders were unable to drive their vehicle under the canopy. The canopy is a trade-mark structure and would be terrible to lose just because EMS could not be bothered to use the rear entrance!

Back in the day it must have been quite a sight with its gleaming porcelain enamel Orange roof tiles (even today it's still a wondrous sight!).
