Pensacola: Historic Pensacola Village: The Weavers CottageThe Weavers Cottage was moved to the site in 1989 from 524 East Zaragoza Street to 207 East Zaragoza Street. Often these small Gulf Coast style cottages had only two rooms which were rented separately. Today this simple cottage contains a weaving exhibit which illustrates a craft which was important to a small community like Pensacola. (Source: Bronsaham, Richard. www.historicpensacola.org
