Veteran’s Building

Letter From Seminole Tribe of Florida Chairman Mitchell Cypress…

Special Thanks goes out to our Veteran Men and Women around the world that have served and are currently serving in our United States Armed Forces in an effort to maintain our freedom. To all that has gone on before us, you will never be forgotten. The Seminole Tribe of Florida is very proud of their Veterans and has dedicated this building in their honor. We were able to accomplish our goal which was to provide our well-deserved Veterans a meeting place to reunite with fellow Veterans.

The Veteran’s Building…

Is a star-shaped building that represents the five branches of the United States Armed Forces: Army, Navy, Marines, Air Force and Coast Guard. The building is made of Minnesota Dolomite Limestone, which is from the same quarry as the Smithsonian Institution’s Museum of the American Indian in Washington DC. The ceiling in the auditorium is Cypress. There is a walking path which is a ¼ mile track with exercise equipment areas and gazebos around the path. The auditorium seats approximately 515 people which is also the pentagon part of the building.
