Quincy, Gadsden County, Florida, USA

Quincy is the seat of Gadsden County in northern Florida, west of Tallahassee. Its courthouse square has anchored local government and trade since the territorial era. The city grew as a market for the surrounding agricultural region, and shade-grown tobacco became an important part of its economy in the late 19th and 20th centuries. Historic buildings around the square recall that period of growth. Today the square also includes arts and cultural destinations that connect Quincy’s civic center with its regional history.
