The Armory, Military heritage building in Key West, United States

The Armory stands at 600 White Street in Key West, featuring a two-story structure with dedicated spaces for artistic and cultural activities.

Monroe County purchased the land for The Armory in 1901, and architect T.F. Russell designed the building to support military training and local reserves.

The building transformed into The Studios of Key West in 2006, establishing spaces for artists, writers, and performers to create and showcase their work.

The second floor contains twelve artist studios, while the main hall serves as an exhibition area and rehearsal space for local theater groups.

The Florida Supreme Court's 1903 ruling transferred The Armory's ownership from Monroe County to the state, which refunded the construction expenses.
