a. This impressive Neo-Classical building was designed for J.W. Warner,
founder of South Florida's first floral company. The home's fine craftsmanship
is especially evident in its massive columns, Palladian window and porte-cochère.
Wide porches and verandas adapt the J.W. Warner House to the Florida climate
with a graciousness that evokes the elegance of Florida's early years.

in 1983.
