Episode Details

An old Florida gem, the Lewis House, is on the verge of being saved from demolition thanks to the Longwood Historic Society. Built in the 1880s and moved twice to avoid the wrecking ball, this historic home faced another near-loss when city relocation bids went way over budget. Now, the society’s stepping in — proposing to take ownership, handle fundraising and restoration, then hand it off to Christ Episcopal Church for classrooms and events. With contractor support already in place and a 2029 deadline in sight, this century-old house might just get a second life — and a new purpose.
