A Journey into Palm Coast

The City of Palm Coast Historical Society has a wonderfully informative and entertaining website.

Palm Coast may be a relatively new community, but there are fascinating bits of information to be gleamed.

For example, when one arrives at the website they are greeted by a picture of Palm Coast's first building - its welcome center. It was an attractive structure that included a 64 foot tall tower. It served as a base for those interested in purchasing a home site. The tower would provide a panorama of the surrounding woods and lakes. The Historical Society website points that the location of your lot could be pointed out to you.

This building was situated on Clubhouse Drive and the site was across the canal, to the left of what is now the first hole green of the Palm Harbor Golf Club. It was was opened in October of 1970.

However, despite efforts to save it by local citizens, it was demolished in 1995.

Thanks to the Historical Society its story remains available to us who never got to see it.
