This fine old building, Convent
of Mary Immaculate, and its
grounds have been put in better
condition and their beauty en-
HANGED in the wake of the rehabil-
itation program here in Key West.
A considerable amount of priv
ate building and repair work is
being done in Key West, and the
Church has done its part along
that line.
It's first foundations laid in
1878. the Convent is one of the
landmarks of Key West and for
manys years was considered one
of the handsomest educational
structlresSp. the entire state.
Recently, sidewalks have been
repaird and built; the streets
within the grounds have been
hardsurfaced with layers of mari.
Added Identification of the
grounds has taken place. and in
general those in charge of the
Convent have done what they
could in rehabilitating Key West
The Key West citizen. [volume] (Key West, Fla.) 1879-current, 1934-11-29

One corner of the building was
damaged two years ago by reverb
erations from the guns at Fort
Taylor, and that also has been re-
paired within the past few weeks
by the Church.
Visitors and winter residents
here this season viii find the Con-
vent more restful, more beautiful
and perhaps more interesting than
in several years.
Expenditure of several hundred
dollars was made in the repair
work which will aid in lengthening
the life of this old building which
has played such an interesting
part in Key Vests history. Key
West can well be thankful for the
edifice. for in two major -eatas-
trophies of Key west&thes yellow
fever seourge and the Spanish
American War-the Sisters of the
Convent gave unstintingly of their
time. energy and in many instances
