This is a train station owned by the Southern Express Company, owned by Henry Flagler. Henry was basically a rich guy that dealt in real estate and oil. He moved around a bit but finally settled in Florida where he built the Ponce DeLeon hotel in St. Augustine.
He eventually built a railroad system, and turned Florida into a vacation mecca.
