The city is also the oldest incorporated municipality in South Florida.
When Henry Morrison Flagler first came here in 1893, he called the Lake Worth region “a veritable paradise” and decided upon a dual plan for the area. He would turn Palm Beach into a resort and he would build a commercial city across the lake for his workers. That “worker city” would become beautiful West Palm Beach.
