Sticks of Fire: a Tampa blog

Our friends at the Temple Terrace Preservation Society are sponsoring the 2008 Temple Terrace Historic Homes Tour on Saturday, December 6, 2008, from  10am to 2 pm.

Tour headquarters will be in the 1920s era “Club Morocco Nightclub and Casino” which is now the Student Center at Florida College at 119 North Glen Arven Avenue. Admission is $15.00 and there will be two trolleys available which will be picking up folks at the Student Center and returning them.

The theme for this year’s tour is “Mediterranean Revival meets Mid-Century Modern”, and we will have seven 1920s era Mediterranean Revival buildings, and for the first time in the history of our tour we’ll include three of our 1950s-1960s Mid-Century Modern homes. The city has some great buildings from this era.

A slide show of the buildings on the tour can be found here (click on the side bar on the left to start): http://ttpreservation.jalbum.net/2008%20Temple%20Terrace%20Hm.%20Tour/
