The Architecture of Key West - Garden Lecture SeriesOldest House & Gardens Key West's photo.












Key West is the largest historical district of wooden structures on the US Department of the Interior’s National Register of Historic Places. The charm of Old Town can be attributed to the eclectic mix of over 3,000 wooden buildings constructed throughout the 19-Century; some of which were built in the Bahamas and brought to Key West. The durability of Key West Homes is a testament to the skills of marine carpenters who used rot-resistant Dade County Pine. In her presentation, art historian Snow Philip will discuss the wide variety of styles and influences that led to Key West’s unique architectural fusion.

About the Presenter

Snow lives between Key West and Venice, Italy and currently gives presentations to Road Scholar tours on the subject of Architecture.
