No soldiers were stationed in the barracks from shortly | after the conclusion of Civil War till 1892. Young people jin Key West in those days | did not know what a soldier | looked like. Two civilian caretakers were in charge of | |the barracks, and one of }them daily obtained rain} | water from the huge cisterns} there and sold it at 10 cents {a demijohn. | Key Westers turned out | by the thousands to watch two corapanies of soldiers, |that came here in 1892, as | they marched from the Mal- lory wharf to the barracks. | Yes, it would be one of the best things that could happen to Key West if the barracks tract could be ac- | quired by millionaire devel- opers. The Garrison Bight, |} across Palm avenue from the |back of the barracks, could be deepened and hotels-and apartment houses could be constructed on the ground now occupied as an army post. Time and again, the bar- {racks tract has been reter- | xed. to.as the best site in Ke | West for development in line | | with a: high-¢lasx) winter ré- |sort.
