WoodPecker Walking Trail:
The project was funded by the Alachua County Wild Spaces Public Places funds (WSPP) fuel tax.
NW 49th Terrace, is now the ToLC Woodpecker Walking Trail. The walking trail is .80 of a mile each way. There are benches along the walk, for resting or enjoying the shade of some great old oaks.
Please Clean up after your pets and yourself. There is a trash can at the start of Trail.
Lets only leave memories.
1830’s Early Settlement.
John Cellon, a French immigrant, arrives and establishes the first homestead. Families from Georgia and South Carolina soon follow, creating a burgeoning farming community originally named “Rome.”
1881’s Cotton Era Begins.
LaCrosse emerges as a bustling cotton trading hub. Merchants such as John E. Futch and Henry Clay Parker establish stores and warehouses, driving growth and enhancing commerce.
1930’s The Potato District.
The boll weevil devastates cotton crops, prompting farmers to pivot to Irish potatoes, which earns La Crosse the nickname “Potato District.” Crops such as corn, vegetables, and tobacco also flourish.
2000’s Modern ToLC
Residents gather at the Town Hall or the Fire Station while also enjoying the ToLC Recreational Park, which features tennis &basketball courts, playgrounds, and picnic areas. The rural landscape continues to reflect its agricultural roots.
