Wilton Manors

More about the book

E.J. "Ned" Willingham, an honest land speculator during the "Florida Frenzy," envisioned a modest yet graceful community called Wilton Manors, designed for residents seeking winter retreats or permanent homes. His plan included spacious yards, schools, and parks within an exclusive, whites-only enclave. Nearly 80 years later, the community has transformed into a diverse and tolerant area, boasting beautiful homes and excellent city services, while still honoring its genteel history.
