Motels Main | Googie | Neon | Other | Surf | Florida Main
Two great looking motel marquees (Palm Aire and Sandman) can be spotted along 34th Street N. in St. Petersburg, FL. Author Jack Kerouac spent his last years in a home not far from these motels with his wife and mother. His life "on the road" ended here in 1969 with an abdominal hemorrhage in large part due to his alcoholism.
One of the most visible motel marquee around is a large yellow boomerang pointing you into the parking lot of the Sun-n-Sand Motel. Ironically, there really is no sand in the area.
The Siesta Motel is one of the vintage motel marquees sporting a diver/swimmer on the sign itself.
