Greater Brandon Historic Photos on Display at Center Place

More than 60 photos of the Greater Brandon area are on display this month at the Mook Art Gallery at the Center Place Fine Arts & Civic Association.

 

The communities of Brandon, Seffner, Valrico, Riverview and Lithia didn't simply spring up overnight. Remnants of 100-year-old structures can still be glimpsed between new subdivisions and shopping centers.

Nevertheless, most of the historic buildings that marked the development of these Eastern Hillsborough County communities have long been demolished.
