Thomas Center began as Sunkist Villa in 1910.
The private residence was expanded and opened
as the Hotel Thomas in 1928

An example of Mediterranean Revival-style architecture.

Purchased in 1979 by the city and restored.
Now serves as a cultural center and city offices.

The turtle fountain dates from the 1930's.

Still on guard in the Spanish Courtyard.
Odd that there are no Gator fountains
on the premises.
