Ralph D. Turlington Florida Education Center
Presenting, The Turlington Building
Nestled in the heart of Tallahassee, the Turlington Building stands as a significant emblem of Florida’s architectural and administrative heritage. Originally constructed in the 20th century, this structure has been a pivotal hub for state operations, housing various government departments over the decades. Its design, a blend of modernist principles with traditional elements, reflects the evolving architectural narrative of the state capital. Recently, our team undertook the monumental task of restoring the exterior of the Turlington Building. This restoration not only rejuvenated its façade but also ensured that this iconic edifice continues to represent Tallahassee’s rich history for generations to come. Our meticulous efforts have breathed new life into the building, preserving its legacy while enhancing its resilience against the test of time.

The latest project was a year-long restoration of our brick, mortar, and cast stone. This 97-year-old 60,000+ square foot building demands constant maintenance and the flexibility, knowledge, attention to detail and thoughtful project management that All Trades offers, along with Cassie’s incredible enthusiasm makes a sizable project seem to go smoothly and the building well cared for.
