"Delightful"
Dunedin's village-like atmosphere and a relaxed lifestyle has lured
people for decades from around the world. Enjoying the natural wooded
and subtropical setting and close to four miles of picturesque
waterfront, Dunedin sits on central Florida's west coast, in the heart
of Pinellas County's Suncoast. It is also one of the few open
waterfront communities from Sarasota to Cedar Key where buildings do
not obscure the view.
Historic Dunedin ChurchIt may be the world's healthiest climate and the
year-round outdoor fun that brings visitors to Dunedin, but it is
Dunedin's village quaintness coupled with its progressive vision and
masterful planning that keeps them here. It is not surprising that many
seasonal visitors elect to stay once they discover Dunedin is without
the trappings and congestion of most Florida resort towns.
Dunedin reflects the rich American and Scottish heritage of its
founding fathers. This charming village-like town has the distinction
of being the oldest town south of Cedar Key. Early in its history,
thanks to a dock built to accommodate schooners and sloops and the
ingenuity of pioneers from as near as Georgia and as far as Scotland,
Dunedin became one of Florida's chief seaport and trading centers. At
one time Dunedin had the largest fleet of sailing vessels in Florida.
Early settlers were primarily cotton and citrus growers, and it is hard
to envision that most of what is now downtown was once a big cotton
field!
Historic Dunedin HouseThe first land deed was recorded in 1852 by
Richard L. Garrison, only seven years after Florida became a state.
Although it was George L. Jones who put up a sign over his General
Store in 1870 that read "Jonesboro," a petition in 1882 by two Scottish
merchants, J.0. Douglas and James Somerville, officially named the Post
Office, then the town itself, Dunedin. The town became incorporated in
1899.
Dunedin is proud of its "firsts" which are chronicled in Dunedin
Through the Years by William L. Davidson. The amphibious tractor, the
Alligator, assembled in Dunedin and used in World War II, played a
decisive role in the Pacific phase of the war. Frozen orange juice
concentrate, and the "Pram" sailboat racer both originated here.
Dunedin was the first home of the prestigious PGA (Professional Golfers
Association). The first radio signals from Pinellas County were sent
from Dunedin. The oldest continuous garden club on Florida's west coast
is the Dunedin Garden Club.
Historic Dunedin RailroadThe historic Orange Belt Railroad Depot on
Main Street is home to the Dunedin Historical Society and Museum. The
Society has designed a walking tour of historic sites and works hard to
collect area artifacts and preserve buildings that are pertinent to
Dunedin's past. Through their efforts, the Douglas home and Andrews
Memorial Chapel have been put on the National Register of Historic
Sites.
Dunedin's quality of life is linked to its appreciation of its diverse
and colorful past, and to the country that helped shape its future,
Scotland. In commemoration of its ancestral ties Dunedin has chosen
Stirling, Scotland, and Summerside, Prince Edward Island as its sister
cities.
