Postcards--Florida Elks, Benevolent and Protective Order of Postcards--Florida Community centers--Florida Buildings--Florida Courthouses--Florida Description Postcard posted February of 1919 that shows Central Avenue (now Central Boulevard) at the corner of Court Avenue. Pictured is the Elks Club, as well as the intersection of Central and Orange Avenue. The Orlando Lodge of the Elks was founded on June 28, 1907. The Lodge rented space, first from the Odd Fellows and later the YMCA, prior to purchasing the land at Court Street and Central Boulevard for $1,250. The building was constructed circa 1910 by the Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks and cost $8,500 to build. It was made in the Modern Eclectic style with Bungalow elements. Orange County eventually bought the property and demolished the building in 1955, at the same time the 1892 Orange County Courthouse was being torn down in preparation of the building of the Courthouse Annex building. The ground where the Elks Building once stood was turned into a parking lot for the Courthouse. The Elks Club moved to 409 East Central Boulevard and remained there until a fire destroyed their lodge in 1969. Afterward, the Elks moved to 12 North Primrose Avenue. The parking lot was eventually redeveloped into Heritage Square after the demolition of the Orange County Courthouse Annex in the late 1990s. Heritage Square opened in 2000.

Postcards--Florida Shops Stores, Retail--United States Candy industry--United States Buildings--Florida Hardware industry--Florida Description Postcard showing a bird's eye view of Orange Avenue looking north. The cross street in the foreground is Church Street. On the west side of Orange Avenue, at the corner of Church, is the White House Candy Palace at 140 South Orange Avenue. The Candy Palace was built circa 1908 and demolished circa 1928. The building replaced an earlier one that was destroyed by fire in 1907. The original building was white, which is how the White House Candy Palace got its name. The Candy Palace was replaced by the First National Bank Building in 2011. On the east side of the street is the Guernsey Hardware building, formerly located at 135-141 South Orange Avenue. The hardware store was constructed circa 1881 and demolished in 1924. Guernsey Hardware as originally the Cassius A. Boone Hardware Store. Boone operated his hardware store along with his partner William A. Patrick. In 1895, the building and the stock was purchased by Joseph L. Guernsey. Boone chose to go into the citrus industry instead of running a store. Guernsey Hardware operated in the store until 1922 when the Woolworth Company obtained a 99-year lease and in 1924 built a new building that stood until 2004 when it was replaced with part of The Plaza office complex.

Postcards--Florida Business districts Courthouses--Florida Buildings--Florida Elks, Benevolent and Protective Order of Description Postcard showing Central Avenue (now Central Boulevard) at the corner of Court Avenue in Orlando, Florida. It shows the Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks Club, as well as the intersection of Central and Orange Avenue. The Elks Club building was constructed circa 1910 and demolished circa 1955. The cost of construction was $8,500 and the architecture was designed in the Modern Eclectic style with Bungalow elements. The Orlando Lodge of the Elks was founded on June 28, 1907. The Lodge rented space, first from the Odd Fellows and later the Young Men's Christian Association (YMCA) prior to purchasing the land at Court Street and Central Boulevard for $1,250. Orange County eventually bought the property and demolished the building at the same time that the 1892 Orange County Courthouse was being torn down in preparation of the building of the Courthouse Annex building. The ground where the Elks Building once stood was turned into a parking lot for the Courthouse. The Elks moved to 409 East Central Boulevard and remained there until a fire destroyed the lodge in 1969. Afterward, the Elks moved to 12 North Primrose Avenue. The parking lot was eventually redeveloped into Heritage Square after the demolition of the Orange County Courthouse Annex in the late 1990s. Heritage Square opened in 2000.
