Today West Palm Beach is waterfront promenades and palm-lined avenues, the Norton and the Kravis, Clematis nightlife and the Intracoastal breeze. Our West Palm Beach designs gather that identity — the alligator emblem, Flagler’s railroad city, the mainland-and-island story — into wearable form. West Palm Beach, Florida — Flagler’s city on the Intracoastal, where the railroad came south and the palms never quit.
The city’s story isn’t only Flagler’s. When the Black community living in the “Styx” on Palm Beach island was displaced in the 1890s, many resettled on the mainland in the Northwest neighborhood, building a community of churches, businesses, and Bahamian-influenced cottages that became the city’s first National Register historic district. The railroad workers, the carpenters, the families who kept the resort running — they are as much the founders of West Palm Beach as the magnate who drew the map. The arts followed: the Norton, the largest art museum in Florida, and the Kravis Center stage.
Why People Visit West Palm Beach
West Palm Beach rewards visitors who want culture with their coastline: a serious arts scene, a lively downtown, historic neighborhoods under the palms, and the Intracoastal at the center of it all. Add the island just across the water and the year-round South Florida sun, and Flagler’s mainland city makes an easy case for itself.
