Description

A black and white photograph from the water tower near Gulfport City Hall. The waters of Boca Ciega Bay are visible in the distance. From note: Looking southwesterly towards Pass-a-Grille. The Don Cesar can be seen across the bay with Boca Ciega Isle (formerly "Coon Key") to the right of it. Spots of the old sand flats can be seen just inside the bay tree line - Town Shores is now in that area. (Nathan, October 27, 1993)
