Eyebrow houses, Key West

Key West is a Tropical Oasis at the end of a chain of Islands known as "The Florida Keys". Our small island is rich with culture, art, writers, sailors, bootleggers, smugglers and Pirates, friends and fun. The City was incorporated in 1828, four years after becoming the county seat of Monroe County. The City’s economy is dependent upon mainly Tourism. Other industries include Real Estate sales and Improvements, Local Artists, Many Local Authors including Ernest Hemingway. As Key West is a highly popular tourist destination is also a desirable residential location. Our Island is home to some of the world's finest restaurants, shops, nightlife, fishing, sailing, diving and watersports. Many people have come for a vacation and never went home. That is exactly what I did in 1992. This weblog is designed to describe "A Day in Key West" through daily photos and the eyes of a Key West local.

Eyebrow houses, Key West

The "Eyebrow" construction is popular in Key West. This architectural style became common in the 1920-1940, pre air conditioning, days. The large overhang provides shade for the front porch and keeps the upper floors cooler. Eyebrow homes are quite popular in the Bahamas for the same reason. If you want to check out some eyebrow homes or any Florida Keys homes for sale, please call me at 305-731-0501 or email me at [email protected].
