Description
The Heritage Village, a 21-acre open-air living history museum in Largo, Florida, features 30 historic structures nestled in a pine and palmetto forest. Some nearing the century mark, the village contains a school, church, warehouse, firehouse, railroad depot, general store and a pleasant mix of historic homes.
This 1915 store originally stood on the southeast corner of 6th Avenue and 5th Street South in St.Petersburg where it served as a grocery and meat market. The vintage 1930s Ford woody adds a fitting touch of nostalgia to this scene.
