Voted Florida's Best Garden!
PINEWOOD ESTATE
Nestled in the heart of seven and one-half lush acres at Bok Tower Gardens is an enchanting 20-room Mediterranean-style mansion called Pinewood Estate, a National Historic Landmark. Originally named “El Retiro,” meaning retreat in Spanish, the estate was built in the early 1930s for Charles Austin Buck, a Bethlehem Steel vice president. Having made a fortune in steel, Buck wanted to build a winter estate where he could be surrounded by his nine children and 18 grandchildren during the holidays.
In an effort led by Nellie Lee Holt Bok, daughter-in-law of Gardens’ founder Edward W. Bok, Pinewood Estate was acquired in 1970 and “El Retiro” was renamed “Pinewood Estate.” Famed restoration landscape architect, Rudy Favretti, was engaged along with a corps of volunteers to restore the manor to its original glory so it could be enjoyed by visitors.
