607 Palm Avenue

 



Built by Hugh MacGibbon, a postmaster in Punta Gorda's early days,  in 1920 as a two-story Colonial Revival with a rectangular plan built up off the ground and situated on piers.  Contributing to the Punta Gorda Historical Residential District the details of the MacGibbon house include a simple classical frontispiece and boxed eaves.  At the time it was the only house on that block of Palm Ave. The street was called West Palm Ave.
