This label, featuring the beautiful Lake Mirror Promenade and Civic Center, helped to promote the City of Lakeland. . . . #Strawberries #throwbackthursday #cratelabels #lakemirror #promenade #vintageadvertisement #vintageart #vintage #retroart #florida #Lakeland #civiccenter #transportation #LakelandHistory #SpecialCollections #LakelandHistoryRoom

When built in the 1920s, the Lake Mirror loggia and promenade were known as the Civic Center.

Re-Cycled by Jarod Charzewski is the first of a dozen or so sculptures being installed by city parks workers on Lemon Street this month.

Sculptures, rotated annually, are chosen by a jury that includes representatives of the city of Lakeland, Polk Museum of Art and local artists.
