Riddle House

The house was built in West Palm Beach, Florida in 1905 by some of Henry Flagler's hotel construction workers.

By 1920, the house became privately owned by Karl Riddle, a city manager and superintendent of West Palm Beach.

[1][2] Originally located at 327 Acacia Street in West Palm Beach, the house was nicknamed "the painted lady", because of its bright colors.

[1] However, the dwelling would officially be known as "Gatekeeper's Cottage" early on because it served as the residence of the keeper of Woodlawn Cemetery, located just across Dixie Highway.

[2][7] However, PBA instead decided to donate the building to the Yesteryear Village committee South Florida Fair board of directors.
