Nathan F. Cobb - Cobb Cottage

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:

    After the planet becomes theirs, many millions of years will have to pass before a beetle particularly loved by God, at the end of its calculations will find written on a sheet of paper in letters of fire that energy is equal to the mass multiplied by the square of the velocity of light. The new kings of the world will live tranquilly for a long time, confining themselves to devouring each other and being parasites among each other on a cottage industry scale.
    Primo Levi (1919–1987)
