Jacksonville's traffic tower stood watch at the congested intersection of Forsyth and Laura streets, three blocks north of the present-day Jacksonville Landing.  This photo comes from about 1925.  On the right-hand side of the picture is the marble Florida National Bank Building, which still survives.
