Where in the World is Gary? #343

This new series is a throwback to the game, “Where in the World is Carmen San Diego?” I will give a brief description of a place, including its latitude and longitude and several “interesting” facts about the location. I will also try to include a picture or two from my visit to the place. You, the reader, can then hazard a guess to answer the question posed in the game.

I will reveal the correct location on the following day. Hopefully, this type of post will encourage interaction and perhaps stimulate comments. Good Luck!

The answer to yesterday’s place (#342) is Martha’s Vineyard, Massachusetts, USA

Latitude — 25° 47′ North

Longitude — 80° 13′ West

This place began its life as Fort Dallas in 1836. Vizcaya, a palatial residence, is a major attraction here (it belonged to James Deering, of International Harvester).

A watery national park which contains the 3rd longest coral reef in the world can be found nearby.

Calle Ocho is reminiscent of Havana, Cuba.
