The Mansion style house illustrated here represents
many of the great houses of Key West.
Built by ships’ captains or more likely by a new class of
prosperous merchants in the late 1800’s they represented a
cultural coming of age for the community. The wrap around verandas,
large parlor room immediately opening from a richly wood paneled
entry hall, a formal octagonal dining room all suggests images of
a fascinating period. One can imagine the elegant social gatherings
with flowing gowns, black suits, and top hats, glasses raised to
a new prosperous era on the island. In their varying forms, these
spacious elegant homes never fail to capture the attention of passersby
and all have very interesting pasts.
