Kissimmee Directory
1887
Population 1,425

The city of Kissimmee is situated on the line of the South Florida Railroad, 18 miles south of Orlando, the county seat, and 75 miles northeast of Tampa. The city is beautifully located on the head waters of Lake Tohopekaliga, which, together with the Kissimmee river, Lake Okeechobee and Caloosahatchee river, forms a navigable outlet to the Gulf coast waters, where teamers are now constantly employed carrying freight and passengers. At this city all the dredges, snagboats and steamers of the Disston Drainage Company are built, and a vast system of inland navigation and engineering is conducted from this point. The principal shipments are lumber, fruits and vegetables. manufacturing and mercantile business are the chief pursuits. Much tact, enterprise and energy is to be noted among the inhabitants of this little city. The physical features of the country surrounding this city present a very favorable appearance, its lands being of good quality and very productive. The combined advantages to be had here places Kissimmee among the most prosperous towns in this section of Florida.
