Where City Optical Inc is now, on the corner of Love and 2nd Ave, was once the home of Brooks Drug Store. Many have fond memories of getting a Coke Float or Chili Dog after school!
You can also see a bit of Hotel Wilton in the back. Pre-interstate, when US Highway 41 was a main north-south route to Florida, it was one of the busiest tourist sites in Tifton and known statewide. We love that Tifton is still a stop 🥰
