Bay County Islamic Society

The Bay County Islamic Society was founded in 1984, and according to Omar Khalidi, their mosque on Token Road in Panama City was built in 1990-1991 by the architect Medhat Ernesky. It is an example of what Khalidi calls "innovative" mosque design, or one that departs from traditional Islamic elements and style.The building is single-story and faced in brick, with no minaret or dome. The front facade is broken up by an entrance portico.Sources:Bay County Islamic Society. "History." Accessed January 13, 2015. http://baycountyislam.com/history.Khalidi, Omar.
