    This historical marker is located on Indian River Dr. at the courthouse in Ft. Pierce Fl. Marker…read moreF-60 was erected in 1961 by the Florida Board of Parks and Historic Memorials. It is located in front of the Rupert J. Smith Law Library. The historical sign says that St. Lucie County was formed in 1844 and recreated in 1905. It is believed that this part of Florida was named for St. Lucie of Syracuse (283-304 AD) who was a Christian martyr who died during the Diocletianic Persecution. The Spanish were the first European explorers to reach Florida in the 1500's. One of the earliest references to St. Lucie (English version) was the 'Santa Lucia' Spanish colony located between Stuart and Vero Beach. As noted by the sign, the native inhabitants at the time were the Tequesta. After Florida became a state the U.S. government sought to move native people, the Seminoles who had previously been moved from Georgia by the government into Florida, west of the Mississippi which resulted in the Seminole Wars. The army established forts around Florida to chase the Seminoles. Fort Pierce established in this area in 1837, became the county seat. It was named for Major B.K. Pierce, the brother of Franklin Pierce who set up the fort. The settlement that sprang up around the fort became the City of Fort Pierce. This sign gives a brief glimpse of the history in this area. If you are interested in learning more and seeing historical artifacts, you can visit the St. Lucie Historical Museum also located in Fort Pierce. The museum has several displays exploring St. Lucie's history from the earliest humans, the Tequesta and Ais people to today.

The officer announced no guns, knives or ammo said I was in the right place. I stood for :20 outside & :10 in the a/c before getting to the metal detectors. Ninety minutes later I checked into the computer took a badge & was directed into another juror waiting room with about a hundred others to wait. At 9:30 I was called to the 10th floor Judge Sherry Collins' courtroom. From the 10th floor, I had a view of the Palm Beach County Museum, intercostal, bridges, marina, and the Breakers. I am on a jury & have an hour break for lunch. Unfortunately, I'm back on the huge line wrapping around the courthouse to go through the metal detectors.

    Title: Terrible Experience -- Complete Lack of Organization and Misinformation…read more I visited Robert Weissman's Palm Beach County Government Center (301 North Olive Ave, 1st Floor, West Palm Beach, FL 33401) for a driver's license appointment, and the service was absolutely unacceptable. I scheduled my appointment carefully, made sure I had all my documents in order, and confirmed details about my visit. I was clearly misinformed by staff: I was told I could come back to change my Florida Title appointment to a license appointment. However, when I returned, I was denied service -- the supervisor said no, explaining that adding or changing services was not allowed, only adding a license on a title appointment. This left me frustrated, confused, and forced to reschedule an entirely new process. The wait times are awful -- even with an appointment, expect at least an hour. Staff appeared completely overwhelmed and unprepared. Some clerks were emotional and crying at their desks, and the person assisting me seemed barely capable of keeping things together. The supervisor, Junior, offered minimal help despite the clear misinformation I received. To add insult to injury, parking costs money unless you're willing to walk 15 minutes. Overall, this location demonstrates poor management, disorganization, and a lack of customer service. I would not recommend anyone use this office for driver's license or DMV services.

    Standing in front of this beautiful courthouse building, the sign points out "Okeechobee County was…read moreformed Aug. 7, 1917, from St. Lucie, Osceola and Palm Beach Counties. Long a haunt of the Seminoles, the area saw almost no white penetration until the 2nd Seminole War, 1835-42. Much fighting occurred in the county during the war including the Battle of Lake Okeechobee on Dec. 25, 1837. The county has become a major truck crop area. The vicious 1928 hurricane led to flood control on the Lake." It is marker number F-59. The courthouse building was completed in 1926 by architect George Gaynor Hyde in a style blending Southern Colonial Revival and Mediterranean Revival elements. The building faces south and is a three story concrete and glass structure. The main part of the building has a pink colored façade with rounded corners and rounded glass bay windows. On the weekend, the rolling doors were down so the large arch with a double set of stairs inside were not visible. Okeechobee County is named for Okeechobee Lake, the largest lake in Florida, and the name comes from the Hitchiti words "oki" meaning "water" and "chubi" meaning "big."

    As an avid fan of 1920's courthouse design in Florida I had to check out the Okeechobee Courthouse…read moreon a recent trip through town. This historic courthouse was in 1926, the same year Okeechobee became the seat of government for Okeechobee County. In the Native American language of Hitchiti, oki means water and chobi means big which refers to Lake Okeechobee, the largest fresh water lake in Florida. The courthouse was designed by architect George Gaynor in a Mediterranean Revival style. This ornate style was very common in the 1920's when Florida was flush with money. The collapse of Florida's economy due to the land boom bust sparked a recession so the central dome of the courthouse was never added. During the 1928 Hurricane, the first recorded hurricane 5 in the Atlantic, the hallways of the courthouse served as a temporary morgue. Approximately 2,500 people died, making it one of the deadliest hurricanes in U.S. history. In 2009 -2010 the courthouse was renovated by Rowe Architects and Dooley Mack Constructors. A security door was added that can be shut when the building is closed. There is a historical marker out front that details the history of Okeechobee County.

    I found Palm Beach Express while trying to figure out how to best get things delivered to my father…read morewhile he was at the VA Hospital in Riviera Beach. The hospital does not appear to be in the package delivery business, you can tell by the way the conversations are littered with mush such as using 'should be' or ought to' in lieu of a 'yes', or a 'no'. I called Palm Beach Express and got George, the less fair of the husband-wife partnership. George did not speak mush, nor did he once ever sound mushy. I was dialed straight into this, turns out George was a former Army Ranger which explained the solidness that exuded from him. That was the first/last call, I didn't even want to price shop after that. I knew George was onboarded, and that George was going to be my man. Turns out George & Stefanie together take names and kick f#!%ing ass.... yep, professionally. I was/am so pleased with the solidness (this is where the ending sounds/looks/feels just like the promises from the beginning) of transacting with them.. FedEx got the package to them a day earlier than promised. I did not know this until George phoned me at 1238pm (this is a value-added element to their service people!), letting me know Daddy was all set. What a relief! Review readers: BUY WITH CONFIDENCE. Do it, do it now!!!
