| Text on front reads: "The Green Shutters Tea Room and Antique Shop, Whitewater Wis." The brick, Italianate style building surrounded by a lawn, trees and shrubs was built in 1841. From the Property Record on the Wisconsin Historical Society website: "This Greek Revival house was built in 1860 by Mr. Parker and later sold to Jacob Starin. This was the site of the first Sunday School in Whitewater in 1841. The house was remodeled in 1912 and 1924. In 1920, the fanlight-topped French doors and large veranda were added by owner, Sander Hoyum. The first floor was once an elegant restaurant — The Green Shutters. Today it is a professional office." It is listed on the State and National Register of Historic Places. |
