The Art Deco Welcome Center sits within a miniature replica of the Essex House hotel, marked by a bright neon sign and a curved, pastel-colored facade. This building once served as a quiet residential hotel for winter visitors in the nineteen thirties. During a hurricane in nineteen ninety-two, the structure suffered heavy damage, nearly leading to its demolition. Local preservationists fought to save the site, eventually restoring it to serve as the primary gateway for everyone exploring the historic district today.
