The Lyman House

The Lyman House, which was on the corner of Interlachen Ave. and Morse Blvd., was built by Frederick W. Lyman in 1888. It was the residence of Rollins College President Blackman during his term in 1902-1903. The Lyman house was rumored to have the largest piece of plate glass in Florida, south of Jacksonville. Later the house was turned into the Green Gables Tea Room. It was eventually burned down and demolished to built the Whispering Waters Apartment Complex in its place
