St. AUGUSTINE, FLORIDA. HOTEL PONCE
DE LEON, FROM THE ALCAZAR. The Ponce is
the pioneer of the palace hotels of St. Augustine. These
palaces are built of coquina, a curious coral conglomerate,
easily quarried but becoming of extreme hardness on long
exposure to the air. In their architecture, as well as their names,
the group preserves the eclat of the old Spanish occupancy.
