Florida Project Spotlight
Retail Metal Building on Islamorada
This Spotlight features a retail metal building in The Florida Keys for the folks at Ocean Gardens. The project featured custom shaped windows on the gable ends to allow for as much light as possible inside the store and custom below eave canopies on the street facing sides.
Comfort and cooling costs dictated the use of high-r banding insulation in the roof which was left exposed for effect. Exposed HVAC ducting and custom nautical themed lighting add to the appeal of the interior. Custom finishes and quality interior buildout helped to make this project a stunning success.
Florida Project Spotlight
Commercial Steel Building Erecting
This Spotlight features a time-lapse video of the erecting of the Coppertail Brewery in Tampa. The 67′ x 179′ building with an eave height of 31′ easily provided space for brewing equipment, while meeting the wind load requirements of the Florida Building Code.
Partial walls for masonry and a trolley beam for a 4 ton crane add to the complexity of this project. High-r banding insulation help to minimize building cooling costs while providing a comfortable environment. Be sure to check out the building when you visit the Coppertail Brewery and enjoy some of the mastery of their craft!
The History of Orlando
The larger area currently known as Orlando was originally Fort Gatlin (built during the Second Seminole War). Prior to having the name Orlando, it was referred to as Jernigan after the first permanent European settlers to the area (Issac and Aaron Jernigan).
The Jernigan post office opened in 1850 and Jernigan became the county seat of Orange County soon after, in 1856.
There are nearly a half dozen stories, tales, and myths about how the city name was changed from Jernigan to the current-day Orlando. Regardless of which is true (if any of them), by the end of the roaring 20’s, Orlando was in the middle of a housing boom that rivals that of today. Of course, like many booms in the 20’s, it all came to an abrupt end with the stock market crash, ensuing Great Depression, and later WWII.
Nearly two decades after WWII Orlando changed forever when Walt Disney, after first considering Miami and Tampa, announced plans to build Walt Disney World in Orlando. The theme park helped to establish Orlando as one of the most visited places in the world and no shortage of other companies (Universal, Seaworld, Legoland) eager to jump on the bandwagon. Today, the larger Orlando-metro area today is home to over 2.5 million people and growing!
