This small museum anticipates major renovations in the next few years. For now, its main attractions are old photographs of Ybor City and its early inhabitants, the cigar factory workers. There's also a restored casita, one of many once known as canones (cannons) or shotgun houses because of their long, narrow frames. They rented for about $2 per week and sold for anywhere between $400 and $900.
