The House That Jack Built
Something I hadn't noticed before: Jack Kerouac's former (and final) Florida home has been renovated and is now taking applications for a writer residency. According to their website:

The writers will live rent and utility free in Kerouac’s historic Florida home. In addition, he/she will be awarded gift cards for Publix Supermarkets and Darden Restaurants.That's right, hipsters: you can eat Froot Loops in Kerouac's dining room. For free.
