The Egbert Reasoner House, also known as Beth Salem, is an historic home located at 3004 53rd Avenue, East in Oneco, Manatee County, Florida. It was built in 1896 for Egbert Reasoner, a horticulturalist who was inducted in the initial 1980 class of "Florida Agricultural Hall of Fame" members. Reasoner and his brother founded Royal Palm Nurseries. He is credited with introducing the pink grapefruit to Florida.〔(Egbert Reasoner ) Florida Hall of Fame〕 On May 4, 1995, the house was added to the U.S. National Register of Historic Places. ==Current status== As of August 2013, the home is still in the Reasoner family, which hopes to have it relocated and saved, since the underlying land is being sold for commercial development.〔(Sara Kennedy, ''Manatee historic preservation efforts criticized by owner of 117-year-old home'', August 16, 2013, Bradenton Herald ) accessed August 16, 2013〕 As of June 6, 2014, the home is scheduled to be demolished so a new Race Trac gas station can be built on the site. 〔(Sara Kennedy, ''Plans for new RaceTrac mean demolition for historic "Beth Salem" house'', June 6, 2014, Bradenton Herald ) accessed June 9, 2014〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Egbert Reasoner House」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
