    JM>   Most visitors bureau's are on the outskirts of town on a main road.   
    JM>   Ours you have to make your way downtown then down a side street and   
    JM> maybe find a place to park.   
    JM>   I think most people would just give up on the place and either not/or   
    JM> quit looking for it.   
      
     In the city where I grew up, the Chamber Of Commerce for Hialeah, was   
   located along Okeechobee Road (US 27), next to the Miami Canal (the area    
   east of the Miami River, which empties into Biscayne Bay. As I recall,   
   there wasn't a large area for parking...but this was 45 years ago. In   
   Little Rock, the Convention and Visitors Bureau is located across the   
   street from the Statehouse Convention Center, at Markham and Scott   
   Street, along the Arkansas River through downtown.   
      
    JM>   They were cosmetically restored (i.e. some fresh paint was slapped on   
    JM> them) over 50 years ago and nothing done since.   
      
     The folks for the history and preservation of buildings, steam   
   locomotives, etc., are largely ignored by "progress".
