Robert Bruce Barbour House
The Robert Bruce Barbour House, also known as Casa Feliz (''Happy House;'') is a restored Spanish farmhouse designed by architect James Gamble Rogers II, overlooking the golf course in the heart of Winter Park, Florida. This is one of Rogers' best-known residences. In 2000 order to save it from destruction, the city of Winter Park moved it to its current location at 656 Park Avenue North in Winter Park. On April 18, 2012, the AIA's Florida Chapter placed it on its list of ''Florida Architecture: 100 Years. 100 Places'' as ''Casa Feliz / Formerly Robert Bruce Barbour Estate''.〔(Florida Architecture: 100 Years. 100 Places )〕
==History==
Here is what architect James Gamble Rogers II says about the creation of this house: "Barbour came along and he had this beautiful lot, you know, on North Interlachen Avenue. Evelyn and I were sitting at home one time and somebody tapped on the door and I went to the door and here were Mr. and Mrs. Barbour, whom I had never met. And he said, “I want to know who your architect was,” and I said well, I was my own... So...Mr.. Barbour said, “I want to know who your architect was,” and I told him that I had designed it myself. He said, “I want you to design me a house, but I don’t want anything like this. I think your house is beautiful, but I don’t want anything like it. He said, “I want a Spanish farmhouse. You may design it anyway you want. I won’t interfere, and if I don’t like it when it’s done, I’ll sell it. I’m not going to interfere with you one bit. You just make me a beautiful Spanish farmhouse.”
