Downtown Tallahassee is quite a pretty place!

For this dashboard tour, I took the 10 west from Jacksonville. My plan was to drive through downtown Tallahassee, the capital of Florida. I was lucky, as the day was virtually cloudless, which made for a great day to record. It was Wednesday, January 6, 2021 at high noon.

Now Tallahassee is the state capital, but it wasn’t the original state capital. Florida originally had two state capitals - Pensacola was the state’s west capital and St. Augustine was Florida’s east capital. They decided to make Tallahassee the one true state capital in 1824.

Tallahassee became a city in 1821. Today, it’s known for its pretty parks, boutique hotels, its museums and arts and its music. Its located in Florida’s panhandle, only 20 miles north of the gulf of Mexico and just 14 miles south of the Georgia border. Its home to Florida State University, and downtown is known for its stately mansions and live oak trees.

It’s not a big city - there’s only a couple hundred thousand people here.

Here’s the rest of downtown Tallahassee.
