    Driving Key West, Florida
    Starting at The Conch Republic
    Driving from one end of the main street Duval to the other then to the famous Southern Most Point Marker and then a leisurely drive off the island of Key West Florida
    October 28, 2013
    Key West is a city in Monroe County, Florida, United States. The city encompasses the island of Key West, the part of Stock Island north of U.S. 1 (the Overseas Highway) (east), Sigsbee Park (north, originally known as Dredgers Key), Fleming Key (north), and Sunset Key (west, originally known as Tank Island). Both Fleming Key and Sigsbee Park are part of Naval Air Station Key West and are inaccessible by civilians. Key West is the county seat of Monroe County. Key West is the southernmost city in the Continental United States. It is also the southern terminus of U.S. 1, State Road A1A, the East Coast Greenway and, before 1935, the Florida East Coast Railway.
    Key West is 129 miles (208 km) southwest (229.9 degrees) of Miami, Florida, (about 160 miles (260 km) by car) and 106 miles (171 km) north-northeast (21.2 degrees) of Havana, Cuba. Cuba, at its closest point, is 94 statute miles (151 km) south.` Key West is a seaport destination for many passenger cruise ships. The Key West International Airport provides airline service. Hotels and guest houses are available for lodging. Naval Air Station Key West is an important year round training site for naval aviation due to the superb weather conditions. It is also a reason the city was chosen as the Winter White House of President Harry S. Truman. The central business district primarily comprises Duval Street, and includes much of the northwest corner of the island along Whitehead, Simonton, Front, Greene, Caroline, and Eaton Streets and Truman Avenue. The official city motto is "One Human Family."

    Great video and thanks for using HD and not blasting some crappy radio station.. You can actually hear the sounds of what's going on around you.. Almost like being there!

    Thank you for posting. Looks (as usual) like a beautiful day in Key West. The only thing I would mention is that the second half of this video is driving up North Roosevelt Boulevard, which was under construction at the time. The construction is finished now and that route is beautiful again: lined with palm trees, unobstructed views of the bay and the Gulf of Mexico. Key West is paradise.

    Well that was nice of you to do this! I walked those streets as a 5 year old kid in 1971, and if I'm not mistaken (I could be wrong) that CVS was there back then, too...

    Corporate America has left no places unscarred anymore: McDonald's, Burger King, Wendy's, Pizza Hut, Dominoes, Circle K, Home Depot, Wyland Galleries, CVS, Denny's, IHOP, Border's Books, I can go on and on...I really do like your great video though. Nice to watch a tour video without annoying music or talking. But I can see all that stuff right here at home.

      Deleita Gyasi The Florida Keys are a coral cay archipelago located off the southern coast of Florida, forming the southernmost portion of the continental United States. They begin at the southeastern coast of the Florida peninsula, about 15 miles (24 km) south of Miami, and extend in a gentle arc south-southwest and then westward to Key West, the westernmost of the inhabited islands, and on to the uninhabited Dry Tortugas. The islands lie along the Florida Straits, dividing the Atlantic Ocean to the east from the Gulf of Mexico to the northwest, and defining one edge of Florida Bay. At the nearest point, the southern part of Key West is just 90 miles (140 km) from Cuba. The Florida Keys are between about 23.5 and 25.5 degrees North latitude.The climate of the Keys is defined as tropical savanna according to Köppen climate classification. More than 95 percent of the land area lies in Monroe County, but a small portion extends northeast into Miami-Dade County, such as Totten Key. The total land area is 137.3 square miles (356 km2). As of the 2000 census the population was 79,535, with an average density of 579.27 per square mile (223.66/km2), although much of the population is concentrated in a few areas of much higher density, such as the city of Key West, which has 32% of the entire population of the Keys.The city of Key West is the county seat of Monroe County. The county consists of a section on the mainland which is almost entirely in Everglades National Park, and the Keys islands from Key Largo to the Dry Tortugas.

      With OVER 100,000 Views on this video and OVER 21 MILLION Views on my channel, proves that my Watermark is NOT working "against" me. Videos like this are Copied & Stolen, which I have experienced many times. That is why the need for Watermarking the video. Hope you enjoyed! :-)
