The Evolution Of Tampa’s Franklin Street
![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEghz9oc82Rgy5K9uZn6XXU1Vs7dltqRnezVU1Pwub7Py3v5eD3cBVhy0qtYjHOnecxbr_jdoBCxEI5eFi5UxZGftQwMOBLEDQkeAOGWxxmpLZiFKC61ffAV6LBVqRGYEvjnITcI/s400/grants.jpg)
The city’s first electric lights lined Franklin by 1887. It was the first in the city to be paved, the first to have sidewalks. The city’s first brick building, the Bank of Tampa, was built on Franklin in 1886. In 1885, Tampa’s first streetcar, a steam-powered contraption with passenger cars similar to a freight train’s, rambled up a sand-covered Franklin on a narrow track to a nascent Ybor City. By 1900, electric streetcars traveled up and down the street on 21 miles of track connecting downtown to Ybor, West Tampa, Sulphur Springs and Ballast Point.

"I am a strong Christian. However, I believe that religious values are something that should be taught in the home, not in school. I feel that we should build our education program around education.".....Sally Harris
"There's a definite line between church, and state, and the need to not think about religion in a classroom, and understand it's there. But when we're talking about being abstinent, or when we're talking about intelligent design, those are valid subjects.".....Benjamin Fink
I believe that they chose the wrong path, and I lobbied diligently to get them to re-think that decision because it is only a theory. And to exclude other theories in view of one theory, to me is not education. That's indoctrination.".....Terry Kemple
