Central East Florida makes a roaring start at the "Birthplace of Speed," blasts through the "Space Coast," and quietly ends amid the buried gold and famous oranges of the "Treasure Coast." From horseless carriages to speedy racers, and from sunken Spanish galleons to rocketing space ships, the Central East region blends the glory of Florida's yesteryears with the triumphs of her tomorrows.
