Florida: A Guide to the Southernmost State in the St. Augustine points of interest section:
The PRINCE MURAT HOUSE, NW. corner St. George and Bridge Sts., a two-story vine-covered building with two shingled dormer windows. Used as a coffee house, this coquina structure was built around 1815 and is believed to have been occupied by Prince Achille Murat during his residence in the city.
The building is definitely no longer a coffee house as mentioned in the Guide. The exact status in unknown, but it appears to be vacant since all the windows and doors were sealed up.
