South Park Street
Park Street has always been the center of downtown as each of the buildings in several blocks have been there since 1915 or so. The businesses may change, but the buildings still stand.
O.O. Davis Building
The O.O. Davis building was a furniture store but upstairs it served as the first Okeechobee County Courthouse in 1917. O. O. "Buckshot" Davis was the owner of this new two-story structure on the corner of South Park and Miami (SW 3rd Avenue).
