Cortez Plaza Shopping Center
In and around the beautiful Cortez Plaza Shopping Center in 1959, courtesy of The Library of Congress. Nice shots of the shopping center early in its life, with a cool view, especially, of the Belk-Lindsey store (1st photo), sitting behind the court pool as evening falls on a late-fifties Bradenton, Florida.

Those ceiling supports remind me of Apache Plaza in Minesota! Very Mod, looks like they might catch rain on the roof!
SWANK!!! I can feel the cool breeze and smell the salt in the air..... those were the days.
Love those cool support beams!
