Description
Cedar Key Sunset Silhouette by D Hackett
The inspiration for this painting were the old structures that dot the gulf coast of old Florida. They are reminders of when working fishermen built camps above the water. The first houses were thought to have been erected between 1916 and 1918. Many were located in Pasco County and at Cedar Key, However hurricanes have now destroyed most of them. At that point, the state began to control the structures, pinpointing the locations and holding leases to the underwater land. All are privately owned and have been grandfathered in by the state Legislature, which holds the leases to the land. No new houses can be built, though damaged ones can be repaired depending on the remaining structure.
