Vero Beach, Florida - Heritage Center & Indian River Citrus Museum (2018)
The Old Vero Beach Community Building (also known as the Vero Beach Service Center, Vero Beach Physical Arts Center, or Heritage Center) is a historic building in Vero Beach, Florida. Located at 2146 14th Avenue, the Vero Beach Community Building was built in 1935 during the New Deal Era, a project that provided residents and visitors alike with social and entertainment activities during the great depression. The building served as a social gathering place, playhouse, and meeting hall as well as the Headquarters for the Tourist Club. The Community Building once hosted a zoo that consisted of a bear named Alice, an alligator, monkeys and other animals. The site of the zoo is now occupied by Pocahantas Park. In 1943 a north wing was added to the building in order for it to become a servingmen's club. Organized by director Dale Wimbrow, the addition consisted of lounge, a restroom, and showers. After World War II, the 1943 addition became the Indian River Citrus Museum. On January 19, 1993, it was added to the U.S. National Register of Historic Places.

Florida Citrus Still In The Game
It's been the toughest year in the toughest decade in history to be a Florida citrus grower. But even after a seemingly endless battle with citrus greening disease and $750 million in damages courtesy of Hurricane Irma, Florida citrus is still in the game and shipping right now.
We caught up with the folks from Florida Classic Growers and the Dundee Citrus Growers Association for an update.
