What we love at The Follies House... TO INSPIRE! This house was built in 1886 by Dr. Doolittle. The street and surrounding block were named Doolittle Park. He built this house for his daughter, Esther, as a wedding present; the house is painted in wedding cake colors, and looks good enough to eat!
Think sherbert.
It is named after Florenz Ziegfeld the showman of Broadway, and my mother's career in musical dancing at New York's Copacabana, then to MGM as a dancer in Ziegfeld Follies of 1946.
