West Palm Beach was established in 1894, two decades after pioneers
first arrived in the wilderness at Lake Worth. In 1893, Henry M.
Flagler, Standard Oil magnate and Florida railroad mogul, finalized
plans to extend his Florida East Coast Railroad south in order to
turn Palm Beach into a winter playground for the rich. He designed
West Palm Beach as the mainland commercial and residential support
for his new resort. From its humble beginnings, it has become Palm
Beach County's largest city and the seat of government. The city
has suffered fires, hurricanes, boom times, and hard times, always
emerging triumphantly. This installment of West Palm Beach's
fascinating story shares its unique settlement and growth through
the end of World War II.
