Town of Palm Beach, Palm Beach, FL, history of Palm Beach, Worth Avenue

The Town of Palm Beach was founded during the industrial revolution, and largely built in the 1920’s. Palm Beach became the winter retreat for a new kind of American royalty with tremendous newfound wealth, and the desire to display it to the world. The estates were inspired by the grand, stately palaces of Europe, and intended to establish the families’ lineage and status, which was rarely more than a generation old.

Palm Beach soon became a resort town with lavish hotels and opulent residences. Winter residents decided to build homes of their own, and commissioned some of the grandest homes from the most well-known architects of the time to showcase their wealth.
