LEE TRUST FOR HISTORIC PRESERVATION, INC.; May 1996: THE TOWN OF FORT MYERS BEACH WANTS TO BUY AN ARCHAEOLOGICAL AND HISTORIC SITE: " In April, the town council unanimously voted to try to acquire the "Mound House" on "Long Estate." A group of German developers has reportedly made a $1,000,000 offer for the property, but council members hope they can acquire the property before that deal closes. Fort Myers Beach is ready for historical and eco-tourism; town manager Marsha Segal-George proposed creating a water eco-trail from the Matanza Pass Wilderness Preserve to the Mound House and on to Mound Key, which is believed to have been the capital of the Calusa Indians.
This site, one of Lee County's earliest recorded archaeological mounds, is in pristine condition and qualifies for the National Register of Historic Places, but the Mound House has significance beyond its Calusa roots. The first Homestead in Estero Island was granted to ROBERT GILBERT for Mound House property and 82 acres from Gulf to Bay. Gilbert was a Koreshan and after Dr. Cyrus Teed, founder of the Koreshan Unity died in 1908 Gilbert sold the property to William H. Case.
The house on the mound encases one of the first homes built on Estero Island. It was built circa 1909 by William H. Case, who platted the first subdivision on the Island, Case's subdivision."
