The Armory is a historic site in Key West, Florida, United States. It is located at 600 White Street. In 1971, it was added to the United States National Register of Historic Places. The armory was built to support military training and readiness of local military reserves. In 1877, the "Key West Rifles", a voluntary military company, organized with 80 members. It was not very professional, and after the fire of 1886 destroyed all of its equipment, it ceased to exist. In 1888, a 32-member company named the "Island City Guards" was organized, which would eventually become Company 1, Second Regiment of Infantry, Florida State Troops. It is now part of the National Guard.

  • Zbrojnice je historická budova na Key West na Floridě. Nachází se na adrese 600 White Street. Zbrojnice byla postavena na podporu vojenského výcviku a připravenosti místních vojenských rezerv. V roce 1877 byla založena organizace Key West Rifle, dobrovolná vojenská společnost s 80 členy. Nebyla příliš profesionální a po požáru z roku 1886, který zničil veškeré vybavení, přestala existovat. V roce 1888 byla zorganizována 32členná společnost s názvem Island City Guards, která se nakonec stala druhým plukem pěchoty. Nyní je součástí národní gardy. (cs)

Půda pro zbrojnici byla zakoupena okresem Monroe v roce 1901. Zbrojnice byla navržena T. F. Russellem a postavena v roce 1901 Johnem T. Sawyerem. V roce 1903, na základě rozhodnutí Nejvyššího soudu na Floridě, stát Florida vrátil náklady kraji a převzal vlastnictví. Roku 1971 byla zapsána do National Register of Historic Places. (cs)

Ein weiteres herausragendes Beispiel für den Baustil von Architekt Russell war das Hauptgebäude von , dessen Gründer einst der reichste Mann Floridas war, und das ebenfalls in Key West stand, ehe es in den frühen 1960er Jahren durch ein Feuer niederbrannte. Erst kurz vor dem Brand hatte es das Florida Board of Parks and Historic Memorials als erhaltungswürdig, sowie als mögliches Denkmal eingestuft. (de)

It is now part of the National Guard. Land for an armory was purchased by Monroe County in 1901. The armory was designed by and built in 1901 by John T. Sawyer. In 1903, upon a ruling by the Florida Supreme Court, the state of Florida refunded the cost to the county and took ownership. In 2006, it became the home and initial campus of The Studios of Key West, a new artist community offering creative space, professional workshops, and other creative and cultural activities. After The Studios of Key West moved to their new headquarters, at 533 Eaton Street, in 2015, The Armory eventually became home to 12 artist studios. 'Artists at the Armory' are located on the second floor. The main hall is available for lease and is often used as a rehearsal space by local theater companies or as an exhibition space. The Historic Florida Keys Foundation (HFKF) leases the Armory from the State of Florida. The HFKF manages the Armory and oversees its maintenance. The Armory received a Historic Florida Keys Foundation Preservation Award in 2008. (en)
