Florida Room


The Collins family added the Florida Room onto the back of their home in 1952. The Florida Room addition included a new kitchen, bathrooms, storage, and large glass windows that wrap around the first floor.

In the context of historic preservation, the Florida Room addition compliments the historic house, borrowing certain elements while also remaining distinct from the original.
