Henry B. Plant Poster
Henry B. Plant was a pioneering American entrepreneur and industrialist who made significant contributions to the development of transportation and tourism in the southeastern United States during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Born in 1819, Plant started his career in the shipping industry and later expanded into railroad and steamship operations. One of his major achievements was the expansion of the railroads in Florida. Plant's railroads played a crucial role in connecting various parts of the state, facilitating transportation of goods and passengers. His railroad lines extended to key destinations such as Tampa, enabling economic growth and development in the region.
Beyond his contributions to transportation, Henry B. Plant is perhaps best known for his role in the development of luxury hotels, particularly in Florida. Plant built elegant resorts along his railroad routes, including the famous Tampa Bay Hotel in Tampa. The Tampa Bay Hotel, completed in 1891, was a grand, Moorish-inspired masterpiece that attracted wealthy tourists and played a significant role in Florida's emergence as a premier winter destination. Plant's innovations in transportation and his investment in upscale accommodations were instrumental in transforming Florida into a tourist haven and played a pivotal role in the state's economic and social development. The legacy of Henry B. Plant continues to be celebrated as a driving force behind Florida's emergence as a tourist and economic powerhouse in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.

I originally ordered this print in a larger size but was not pleased with the clarity of it. When I contacted Zazzle, they responded really quickly and were very helpful. I was able to reorder the print in a smaller size and it was shipped to me within a couple of weeks. The print was packaged well to ensure there was no damage during transit (Eco friendly, too!), and I am really pleased with it.
I am so grateful to the customer service team for the professional way they handled my order. I had this printed on matt finish card and I was really pleased with the quality. The colours were rich and the image sharp.
