About this postcard

Palmetto Row in Daytona, Florida, is a sandy promenade shaded by a long avenue of fan palms, with a taller cabbage palm rising on the left and a low stone wall edging the walk. The palm-lined lane was one of the area's early scenic drives and a familiar sight for winter visitors in the 1910s, when Daytona was developing as a resort town on Florida's east coast.
