===Architecture=== {{See also|Architecture of Jacksonville}} In general, the [[architecture of Jacksonville]] varies in style and is not defined by any one characteristic, and Jacksonville Beach is no exception. Designed by [[Marsh and Saxelbye]], and completed in 1925, [[Casa Marina Hotel]] is a Mission style hotel popular in the 1920s when Jacksonville's beaches were being developed. It was added to the [[National Register of Historic Places]] on September 2, 1993.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.nps.gov/nr/feature/places/pdfs/14000187.pdf |title=American Red Cross Volunteer Life Saving Corps Station Registration Form |access-date=September 9, 2014|publisher=[[National Park Service]]}}</ref> Constructed in 1947, the [[American Red Cross Volunteer Life Saving Corps Station]] is an [[Art Moderne]] style lifeguard station designed by local architect Jefferson Davis Powell.
