Today downtown
Sebring is an eclectic mix of fashions,
accessories, shoes and sportswear shops; boutiques;
music stores; a pottery shop where products are
made on-site; restaurants; tea room, antique galleries
and other compatible business and professional offices
that make it an exciting and fun place to be. It
is not uncommon to see visitors, arriving from north
or south on Amtrak, strolling through
the downtown area looking for bargains and specialty
items. Nearby Bed and Breakfasts and hotels provide
accommodations for overnighters. |
| All
of this is within walking distance of Sebring’s
Cultural Center that includes
the public library, the Sebring
Historical Society, the Highlands
Art League and Museum and the renown
Highlands Little Theater, where
prime rib and performances just do not get any
better. The Sebring Historical Society displays
an outstanding Sabre Tooth Tiger Mural
painted in 1941 by Charles R. Knight,
a respected artist, paleontologist and scholar
of prehistoric animal life. Banks, law offices,
accounting firms, real estate, insurance and investment
agencies are also within a block or two of Circle
Park. |
Lakeshore Mall
|
| Retail business has exploded
along US 27 in Sebring over the
past dozen years. An enclosed shopping mall,
with five major anchor stores plus dozens of small
businesses including restaurants, home decor, family
clothing, kitchenware, sports, travel, music, books,
cards and gifts, computers and movie theatres makes
indoor shopping a great experience. In addition
to the mall, every need from automobiles, insurance,
home furnishings, hardware and building supplies,
supermarkets, discount stores, antiques, real estate,
banking and investment services, and many other
types of goods and services can be found along US
27. You might say, “it’s a shoppers
world” in the Greater Sebring
area where the economy steadily improves each year
and where locals and visitors alike are welcomed
by area merchants and professionals. |
