	Railroad magnate Henry Flagler founded the city in 1894 as the commercial and industrial base for Palm Beach. The city spread west with the construction of I-95 in the 1960s, taking in land that stretches to the southern limits of Palm Beach Gardens. Clematis Street bustles with new life after dark, and the city plans to start valet parking for evening diners and shoppers. Flagler Drive's panoramic views of Lake Worth Lagoon and Palm Beach make it the ideal backdrop for numerous outdoor events, many staged in the new Meyer Amphitheatre at Datura Street.

Just 67 miles north of Miami, West Palm Beach is the largest municipality in one of the fastest growing areas in the United States: Palm Beach County. The Port of Palm Beach, Palm Beach International Airport and I-95 are the sea, air and highway "ports of entry" to this fabulous Sunshine City. Established in 1894 by the railroad tycoon Henry Flagler, West Palm Beach is the northern part of Florida's "Gold Coast" that includes Fort Lauderdale and Miami Beach. To the east lies Palm Beach, the Atlantic Ocean and the Bahamas...to the west the Loxahatchee Wildlife Preserve and the Everglades National Park. West Palm Beach boasts the Kravis Center for the Performing Arts, the vibrant nightlife of Clematis Street, the Palm Beach Philharmonic and the Norton Museum
