Original openings behind a bypassed Main Street
Because US 301 was routed around downtown Hawthorne in the early 1960s rather than through it, many of the town's 1913–1920s commercial and residential buildings still have their original window openings, different from the standard rough openings in a typical newer subdivision. That's a meaningfully different starting point than the standard rough openings found in newer Alachua County subdivisions.
Checking a Hawthorne building's window history first
Confirming whether a building's windows are original to its early-1900s construction is a useful first step before requesting a quote, since it changes what fits. That one question changes what fits before a quote is even written.

What helps for a Hawthorne window quote
Let us know whether the building's windows are original to its 1913-to-1920s construction, left largely undisturbed by the US 301 bypass, since original openings differ from the standard rough openings in newer Alachua County subdivisions.
Meeting wind code on Hawthorne's original openings
Windows original to Hawthorne's early-1900s boom predate Florida's current wind-rating standards, and bringing an opening that old up to code while still fitting the original frame is a bigger factor here than in newer construction elsewhere in the county.
