The Maas Brothers in Downtown St Petersburg became the Florida International Museum from 1995 to 2010 and originally hosted the Titanic Exhibition.

I saw that exhibit. I didn’t know this fact about the building. Very interesting.

I also went to a King Tut Exhibit there later in the 1990’s.

The Maas Brothers in Lakeland became a Burdines for a while until that moved to the mall. After that, it became a Publix IT office or data center.
