Notes
	General Note:	Ybor City's greatest horror was the March 1, 1908, fire that was caused by, most likely, a careless cigarette at the Antonio Diaz boardinghouse at 1914 12th Ave., the site of the branch post office that was destroyed in Friday's fire. Due to confusion, firefighters didn't arrive for 45 minutes. Then fire companies tried blocking the fire with dynamite blasts. Residents who tried saving possessions by piling them in the street only provided fodder for a fire that destroyed 171 homes and 42 business over 181/2 blocks. Again, water was lacking. The private Tampa Waterworks "... cut the water pressure because they felt they couldn't meet the demands of its paying customers," Brown said.
	Funding:	Funded in part by the Institute for Museum and Library Services (IMLS), Ephemeral Cities Project.
