History

Furthermore the fire was exacerbated because the town did not have a working water system or fire department. Much of the business district was not spared. Image:Arcadia1907.jpg Church pictured in this 1907 postcard in possession of the author -- Arcadia, Florida From 1917 to 1922, Arcadia was the home of Carlstrom Field, a grass airfield of the US Army Air Service named for deceased aviation pioneer Victor Carlstrom. In May 1941 the site again became an airfield for military primary flight training, operated by the Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University Aeronautical Institute (now Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University). It would be years before the town recovered.
