Florida City: Gateway to the Everglades

Description

Florida City has long been a place of arrival, departure, and labor at the edge of a vast landscape. The water tower rises above a steam locomotive while field rows, fruit, flowers, and palms fill the lower seal. Behind them, the sunburst gives the small town the scale of a gateway. Transportation history and agricultural work share the same seal. It can recall family roots, seasonal harvests, old rail stories, or the familiar feeling of passing the last neighborhoods before open wetlands take over. It honors a community not as a stop between destinations, but as a place with its own enduring story.
