Built in the 1920's, this shotgun-style house was moved from New Smyrna Beach in 1997. Its design is indicative of homes built to quarter workers in the Naval Stores Industry (turpentine). These structures were cheaply built, and occupants frequently papered their walls with cardboard and newspaper to insulate the interior.
