Cobb Cottage
The Cobb Cottage was built using materials salvaged from the ship. Tom Fagen was given permission to use the material to aid in the construction of the three bedroom cottage. Materials used from the wreck included railroad ties to form the exterior and railings for porch decorations. The schooner's wooden name plate, with "Nathan F. Cobb" engraved into it, hangs over the fireplace. The house is now part of Ormond Beach's Historic Trail.

Famous quotes containing the word cottage:
“The poorest man may in his cottage bid defiance to all the forces of the Crown. It may be frail—its roof may shake—the wind may blow through it—the storm may enter—the rain may enter—but the King of England cannot enter!—all his forces dare not cross the threshold of the ruined tenement!”
—William Pitt, The Elder, Lord Chatham (1708–1778)
