Abstract
This podcast looks at some of Central Florida’s smaller tourist attractions, both past and present. We interview Holly and Dolly about Rosie O’Grady’s, Dorothy Mays about Gatorland, and Michael Wanzie about the Parliament House to see how these places withstood the evolution of Central Florida from small town to metropolis. Whether it was the arrival of highways or the major theme parks like Disney and SeaWorld, we hope to demonstrate that not only were the effects of these major changes diverse in each respect, but that they can be seen simultaneously as both good and bad.
