Fernandina (3)

Fernandina was a Spanish town.
Plaza San Carlos is its oldest part. Obviously, the Victorian homes and Florida bungalows are newcomers
.
Before the Spanish, the Indians used this high place above the Amelia river as a settlement.


Many of the homes had for sale signs. What a beautiful spot to live, but ....

... there is a reason why the homes are for sale.
Looks like a paper factory. It makes a lot of noise, but luckily we did not smell it.
