We had just moved to Ft. Lauderdale from Tennessee, I was 7 and in the second grade at East Side Elementary and this was a big damn deal. 🙂

Been here

I stumbled on this site accidentally and started listening, what a great piece of history and story to go with it 😁👏👏👏👍

What a great opportunity to listen to such luminaries in the preservation of Florida’s Past

The male that spoke was correct Rubin was born in Thomasville, GA to a biracial woman named Annie Gilly and her husband John Stacey Jr.

Great job.I've lived here since 1951... most enjoyable

American history is VERY dark.

I don’t know how people can live with themselves after such barbaric acts

It’s underestimated how many black men & boys died from the fraudulent allegations made by white women. This is what you call proxy violence.

Um the "cream soup bowl" has two handles ....no I believe two handles are a sugar bowl and back in the day not sure what year but sugar bowls did not have lids!!!

Just an update to this hood video.....n seeing this was posted five yrs ago. ..... Fenton Is now no longer

This is in Fort Lauderdale, fa

This is so sad. Our people were nothing but a piece of property discarded

Is there any stories of black people killing any white people

I was born in Hollywood, Fla. No place like it!! Historical County Broward, like no other!!🎉

He has more extended family here alive in Massachusetts, including his sisters eldest daughter, my Great Auntie Lilla,

The lady who gave him water was the slave owner of his Mom and his white Grandma. He didn't rape her.

My Great Grandma Kit's Brother, his Nephew is my Grandfather. These people only know half the story.

So glad that the family is speak about their loved one and the injustice that he suffered. Thank you all for this. I will not forget his name Rubin Stacy!❤️❤️❤️❤️

Are the original blueprints available anywhere online?

Poignant

I will LOVE having a dinner and a drink here once it's restored and transformed into a luxury bank bar! I'll make a special trip to experience this gem of American History. Please do not let the greed and destructive nature of those whom hate history prevail.

Sam jones was a black Seminole 🪶🤎🤎🤎

You are a bunch of new yorkers telling life long residents what they can't do to their property. You are terrible.

You guys are awful people, most of the leaders haven't even lived here a decade but telling people who lived here their whole life how they can live.

Dr Richard Howard was my great grandfather. His surgery and home was located on Las Olas Blvd. after graduating Med School, He moved to Ft Lauderdale in1913. I have his front porch rattan “waiting room” furniture. Federal highway was called rocky road. His daughter, Helen Howard Woodruff was my favorite Aunt. Miami’s main library publishes the TEQUESTA MAGAZINE, loaded with wonderful stories about south Florida.

Is there a market for a whole set of pink Windsor depression glass? How would you price something like that?

Awesome info! THANK YOU FOR SHARING!!!

Thank you for the History of Glass..🦩🌴

Don't know why I passed it up but came across a plate or bowl don't remember which labeled depression glass that had a smashed watch and other matalic items incased in the base?

Is there books around this subject?

huh...I just found out i'm directly related to this guy. He's my 5th great grandfather...Also, i live in FL but I was born in Texas and moved here in 91 and never knew until today. Wild

ᑭᖇOᗰOᔕᗰ 😒

I worked at the plant from 1974 to 77 started at age 13 ...I have the original cash register 1934 model ...tried to donate it to the gardens but they were uninterested ...I have many memories

Hollywood native here. 1953. My mom worked at Hollywood Beach Hotel during WW2. My uncle was the general manager back then. Love revisiting the history of old Hollywood. It sure is not that today.

Excellent video. I learned quite a lot about broward county and also in support of renaming the county.

Excellent! My home town. I grew up near South Lake - a gorgeous residential neighborhood. Although I no longer live in Hollywood, it remains forever in my heart.

Amazing information. Wish the presenter didn't come off as a jerk. Didn't give room for questions but made everyone feel stupid for not interrupting him to ask questions. Thankful for the telling of this history though.

Chekika was by most accounts a Spanish Indian( Calusa descent )

I love "Midnight Cowboy". One of my all time favorite movies. And I also love the soundtrack. For many years I thought those Hollywood scenes were filmed in Miami.

Background noise needs to stop people quit talking oh I can hear them more than I can hear the speaker

Thank you for your history lesson. It really helped me understand my grandfather's life..I was told he was a glassblowing but then he followed the gas boom. I didn't understand how it was connected. We always had interesting glass items mostly used for special occasions. We also had glass ball paperweights. I have been trying to identify some of the glass pieces Ihave..some passed onto me by family and some I bought. Thank you.

Thank you! I lived in Hollywood for for 20 years until I moved to Cooper City 3 years ago. Enjoyed the history recap, pictures, and Commissioner Beam's frank commentary.

👍

What an incredible and informative talk given by John Fiori!! I took down a lot of notes!! Thank you for so generously sharing your time with us, John!!

What does it mean when a vintage piece of glass is heavy and has got a flat bottom 🤔

Holy smokes this is the best glass video ever!

You just added a ton of knowledge to my brain's old glass hunting database, thank you sir. Thumbs up!
