Marcelino Cordove

Home once owned by Cuban immigrant Marcelino Cordove. Family also ran a lodging business made up of "tourist homes" nearby.

Located in the eastern section of Lakeland, this home was lived in by Marcelino Cordove and his family, who had immigrated from Cuba. The house occupied prime property on the banks of Lake Artemesia. For several years, the family operated a lodging business with modest "tourist homes" located adjacent to the house. Like all the other homes on Lakeland's eastern area, it was demolished to make way for urban renewal efforts.
