FSU in HO
Since Tallahassee will be a prominent city on my layout, I've been on the lookout for structures that would accurately represent Tallahassee in the early 50s, and I've found a winner:
I just purchased this kit this week (no, this isn't my work, this is the stock company photo). It is actually based on a famous synagogue in New York, but the architecture is a spitting image of many of the older buildings on the FSU campus, as seen here:
I plan to place it on the back of the layout on a slight hill behind some of the Tallahassee industries. I think this will make an excellent Tallahassee landmark to anyone who's familiar with the FSU campus.

I agree it has a lot of resemblence. What type of kit is this? Looks like the layout planning is going very well!
It's a pretty standard plastic kit, made by Heljan. Looks pretty easy.
Wow, that really does look like FSU. Now, let's see if we can't find a UWF building for Pensacola. :)
