Island Hotel & Restaurant
image
Established 1859, the Island Hotel sits across the street from the old L & W Saloon. The Island Hotel was built on 2nd Street out of cypress and "tabby", a mix of lime rock and crushed oyster shells.
According to http://www.civilwaralbum.com/misc6/cedarkey1.htm :
The structure that is now the Island Hotel was built sometime between 1859 and 1860. Records indicate that Major John Parsons bought the property in 1859. It is likely that construction was finished the following year. The Florida pioneers who settled Cedar Key made the building to last. They mixed oyster shell, limestone and sand to pour tabby walls 10 inches thick. Massive 12-inch oak beams were framed in the basement to support the wooden structure. (Their workmanship has withstood the ravages of time for more than 140 years. The building has survived innumerable hurricanes, floods, storms and other disasters. The floors are uneven. The building contracts and expands with the seasons and has all the "aches and pains" of an elderly lady. Development of Cedar Key had begun in 1859 in anticipation of the prosperity that completion of the Florida Railroad was expected to bring to the port on the Gulf. Major Parsons and his partner and co-owner Francis E. Hale (died 1910) were among businessmen hoping to take advantage of the economic opportunity when they opened Parsons and Hale's General Store.
The outbreak of the Civil War forced an abrupt halt to Cedar Key development. Union troops considered it a strategic port. They invaded the town and burned down almost every building that wasn't needed to quarter troops or store supplies. The fact that Parsons and Hale's General Store survived the war lends credence to the strong probability that it served as a barracks and warehouse for the Yankees. It may have been used by Confederate troops as well during the times they managed to retake Cedar Key, since building owner Major Parsons was commander of a detachment of Confederate volunteers defending the Gulf Coast against Federal gunboats and troops.
On November 23, 1984, it was added to the U.S. National Register of Historic Places.

L & M Saloon
image
Atty Pierce Kelley of Cedar Key wrote a novel Fistfight at the L and M Saloon
A picture of this down the road, says "Woolridge Building 1881." In researching the name Woolridge and Wooldridge, there was a N. Woolridge/Wooldridge that was a druggist and served as Cedar Key town clerk. One of his terms, he was actually defeated by the mayor's brother, E.L. Cottrell, who withdrew just before swearing in, and so Mayor Cottrell appointed N. Woolridge / Wooldridge to another term.

Again, according to Cedar Key, Florida: A History by Kevin M. McCarthy, "The first evangelist was C.D. Moore. When the local people wanted services more than the twice-a-year revivals, they rented space in what became the L&M Bar. The first full-time minister, R.C. Crawford, lived above the church." p 72
On page 101 it states, "A fire in March 1975 destroyed the Porthole Bar and Lounge in Cedar Key. Mrs. Mary Arline had operated the lounge, which had been called the L&M Bar and Lounge when operated by Lawrence and Melrose Clark. The thick, coquina-type walls of the more than one-hundred-year old building managed to confine the fire before it spread to the adjoining buildings."
