Interlaken Historic Residential District, Historic residential district in Winter Haven, Florida.

The historic residential area sprawls between two lakes and contains many single-family homes with Colonial Revival architecture. The houses follow the shorelines and form connected streetscapes that structure the district.

The neighborhood began development between 1910 and 1924 as a residential area for families of means. Fifty of the homes were later placed on a national registry because of their historical importance.

The name Interlaken, German for "between lakes", was given to the neighbourhood for its setting between Lake Howard, Lake Mirror and the Cannon-Howard Canal. The streets are lined with single-family homes, most of them Colonial Revival houses built between 1910 and 1924, and fifty of them are listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

You can visit Interlaken Park, located at Avenue L and Orange Street, which offers open lawns and picnic areas for stopping. The area is easy to reach on foot and provides plenty of space to spend time.

Interlaken Park is the only lot in the neighborhood never built on as a single-family home. Speculators drove up its price before the Florida land bust of 1925 and the Great Depression, and Dr. Willey Terrell Simpson, who lived across the street, bought it cheaply at the height of the Depression and gave it to the city as a public park.
