Crystal Ice Company Building
Crystal Ice Company Building, Historic ice manufacturing facility in Pensacola, Florida.
The Crystal Ice Company Building is an ice manufacturing facility constructed from concrete blocks with stucco coating and a trapezoidal shape. Its original office space and freezer storage remain intact within the structure, reflecting how the business operated.
The building was constructed in 1932 by Guy Spearman and served the local community with ice supply until 1970. It operated during an era when households depended on delivered ice before electric refrigeration became widespread.
Hand signal carvings on the walls show how people once communicated without speaking to place their ice orders. Customers from different backgrounds could express their needs this way.
The building is located on North Davis Street and accessible by a concrete driveway that connects to Jordan Street. Its position in Pensacola makes it easy to find and visit when exploring the area.
The building sits at a 45-degree angle to the street with a cantilevered roof extending outward. This design allowed passing motorists to purchase ice conveniently without needing to park.
