Excerpt from St. Augustine, St. Johns County, Florida, Illustrated: Pictorial Edition of the St. Augustine Evening RecordSituated on the beautiful Matanzas bay, at an elevation of ten feet above sea level, with the broad Atlantic a mile away St. Augustine enjoys all of the advantages and pleasures of a coast city, with none of the drawbacks, as none of the undesirable ele ment that frequents shipping centers is found here. The bay front is one of the beauty spots of the city. Another great advantage held by St. Augustine is its location at the northern terminus of the Florida Coast Line Canal, which extends to Biscayne bay, giving an island waterway nearly 400 miles in length. The canal will be extended to Jacksonville, giving this city another and a very desirable route to the State metropolis. In connection with the location of the city may be mentioned the splendid beaches which are reached by trolley car.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
