'This Is tourist money, which is just waiting to be picked up. There is another side to Key West and we should be quite frank in consider- ing this because it is our duty to correct it in this blossoming period of our history. Key West right now <is starting to cleanup but there is trash everywhere and vacant lots everywhere. The question of paint is ever present in Key West. Cer- tainly at this time when money is plentiful in the Island City it should be a civic duty tosee that:one’s places are well painted up. Thén while some of.Key West’s archi- teeture is amazingly beautiful and well kept, unique to the country, a great deal of itis nothing more than shacky material just thrown up. a2 If we can only emphasize’ again and again, Key West for its modern structures must. look like a Fort Lauderdale we will have accomplished our point. Whatever is new for the city must be modern. What- ever is now shacky must be replaced with either the old architecture or the new. The four modern buildings erected on Duval, one by A. E. Martinez, one by Dr. J. A. Valdez, one by Jesus Carmona, and another by Judge Aquilino Lopez should strike a pleasing note to a future Key West prospect.
