Lakeland's most walkable historic neighborhood
Bungalows and Mediterranean revivals under old oaks, between three lakes, a block from the library. If you live here, you're already one of us.

We're neighbors, not an HOA
◆ ◆
We don't measure your grass or tell you what color to paint your house. The Historic Lake Morton Neighborhood Association is a group of neighbors who meet, look out for each other, and work to keep this neighborhood the kind of place people fall in love with.
We meet about four times a year. We throw porch parties. We clean up the lake. We show up at City Hall when it matters. And every spring we open nine historic homes to the public.
Next up
Adopt-a-Lake cleanup, Lake Morton
Meetings, socials, and lake cleanups. All neighbors welcome, members or not.
Every spring
Historic Home & Garden Tour
One Saturday each spring, private historic homes across the neighborhood open their doors. It's our biggest event of the year.
For homeowners
Own a historic home?
Permits, design guidelines, the neighborhood plan, and who to call at the City. We keep it all in one place.

Yes, the swans really are royal

Lakeland's swans descend from a pair sent by Queen Elizabeth II in 1957. They live on Lake Morton, they're the city's official symbol, and they have the right of way.
