Hernando McDonald's, 2013 rear view
This Hernando McDonald's has a 1987 build date listed, but a blurry Google Earth aerial photo shows what looks an awful lot like a mission style Taco Bell on this very site in 1991, with local ownership, or perhaps local owners leasing the land to Taco Bell, or more likely a Bell franchisee. A deed dated 1987 for this lot most likely coincides with the Taco Bell build date (instead of McD's), making it possibly one of the shortest lived mission-style bells in the region. While I wasn't a frequent visitor to Hernando in the 80's and 90's, I definitely remember the Taco Bell. And now, seems like I remember it being strange they would bulldoze a fairly new Taco Bell to put up this McDonald's! McDonald's Corporation first appears on the property records on a deed dated May 1994, which is the year I believe this McDonald's was actually built.
