In 1967, the St. Augustine Historical Restoration and Preservation Commission decided to spend $60,000 to purchase the Edmunds-Rogers property, which encompassed the site of the present day Ortega House. [3] After the reconstruction project was completed, the Ortega House was leased as a private residence.
The house was interpreted as a representation of a wealthy St. Augustine family. The Ribera House Garden became the first formal garden in the restored downtown area. There was a dedication ceremony to open the garden in early May 1968. The president of the Florida Federation of Garden Clubs, Inc., Carroll O. Griffin, presided over the ceremony.
An article from 1974 tells us that the Pellicer-De Burgo lot was locally known as the Paffe property before the reconstruction project. [4] The project was completed in March 1977, and was one of the last houses reconstructed for San Agustín Antiguo, St. Augustine's living history museum.
Flagler, a founder, with John D. Rockefeller, of the Standard Oil Company, already owned two hotels in St. Augustine, the Ponce de Leon Hotel (now Flagler College) and the Hotel Alcazar (now City Hall and the Lightner Museum). From 1888 to 1902, the hotel featured parties, balls, fairs and charity events.
William Watson bought the property where his house in downtown St. Augustine later stood in 1779 from James Penman, a British attorney and friend of Andrew Turnbull who left East Florida following a series of disputes with then Governor Patrick Tonyn. On this land he converted a large stable building into a seven-room convalescent home.
