This is a small but powerful memorial. At first glance, I thought that it was a 9/11 memorial. It…read morehonors the men and women that served in the Vietnam War and was dedicated in Nov 1985. The memorial consists of a 28 feet tall, 15 feet wide American flag that is suspended between twin tall granite towers. The towers have the names of Florida's Vietnam solders that were KIA or MIA, engraved in them. The memorial also includes a small marble pedestal designating the memorial, with an inscription that reads: "Florida's Vietnam Memorial in honor of the 386,000 Floridians who served during the Vietnam Conflict. 1964-1975 among whom 1,669 succumbed and 83 are missing in action. Their names are engraved on this memorial as a token of everlasting gratitude to these patriots for their supreme sacrifice". That marker is very weather and is very difficult to read as you can see in the pictures,You will find a few benches to sit on in the memorial's plaza and it is normal to see flowers placed on the memorial. In front of the memorial is a smaller metal memorial that represents the POW/MIA braclet. It has an accompanying granite pillar that has an engraving that explains the significance of the bracelet. Parking here is kind of tough. There is metered parking and commercial garages/lots within a reasonable walking distance. I like this memorial it is simple, but effective, while paying the proper respects to the city's Vietnam Veterans. Anyway, as with most memorials that I have visited and reviewed, this is not a long stop. I was there less than 10 minutes. So, you may want to consider planning out additional stops at many of the other attractions in the area, or making this stop part of a larger itinerary to maximize your time and trip. The State House is right across the street and there of tons of memorials and parks to check out in the immediate area.

The house was designed for George Lewis, president of the Lewis State Bank, and his wife Clifton Lewis. Both were local activists and promoters of the arts in Tallahassee. Built in 1954, Lewis Spring House is a unique example of a pod-shaped residential structure, with convex walls making the home look oddly like a boat or a football. Unfortunately, the growth by the side of the road makes it impossible to see anything. The clear "no trespassing" sign suggests that you probably don't want to get any closer than that. The owners do offer tours on a scheduled basis but these have been suspended since April. [Review 14078 overall, round number 1400 of 2020, number 1140 in Florida.]

So... Let me tell…read moreyou about my experience with the Leon County Jail. First off I'm happy to report that the charges were dropped, I'm not a criminal and I ended up in this fine establishment because of nightmarish bureaucracy. The Ladies and Gents in Green are honest-to-god kind people. They processed me respectfully and politely. Never once did I feel claustrophobic or mistreated. I came in with my bail arranged, so it wasn't a long stay for me. A few hours. If you have to go to the bathroom, dear god hold it. The facilities are questionable. No offense guys, and I know it's jail but... The decor is oddly relaxing. Simple. Lots of steel and neutral tones. I was stuck in holding with a woman who wasn't quite at peace with being there as I was. At all. Oh my god. If it gets really bad they won't stop you from using the toilet paper to make origami. Also the toilet paper was 2-ply and even Disney can't boast that. ... I'm not saying I'd go back. I checked it off my bucket-list, I'm good. But if... BY CHANCE you find yourself on the wrong side of the law... Calm down. Keep your cool. The people here will take good care of you while they process you. Just be polite and understand the person in front of you is just doing his or her job.

Maybe they are doing a good job here. It certainly has been our experience. When Leon County bought the shopping center then we got a branch library, a community center and this tax collector branch office. No longer a need to go downtown to the courthouse. Just be sure to make an appointment for whatever you need to do. Whatever you need to do includes paying property taxes, vehicle/trailer/boat/mobile home tag, title and/or registration, driver license/ID card, hunting &/or fishing license, disabled parking permit, concealed weapon permit and birth certificates. Whew. Did I mention you need an appointment for these? However, if you are just dropping off your payment and don't need to talk to anybody then there is a secure drop box outside the front door. See, there is one thing you can do without an appointment. For everything else, enjoy not having to sit around in a crowded office waiting for your number to be called. That's how it used to be done.
