| O.C. White's has a History dating back
to 1790, originally constructed by Don
Miguel Ysnardy a prominent St. Augustinian.The building
is associated with significant aspects of
the history of St. Augustine, the Nation's
oldest city. The House served as one of the
first hotels in St. Augustine. The building
was eventually
bought by the Worth family and remained that
way for generations. |
In 1904 the Worth
Mansion was
bought by a local cigar maker, then bought
again in 1948 by George L. Potter,
the one time owner of Potter's Wax Museum.
In 1961
the building was moved to its present location
and replicates the Worth House as it appeared
in the mid-nineteenth Century. |
