It was Addison Mizner (1872-1933) who really put Boca Raton on the map. Addison Mizner is virtually synonymous with Boca Raton. He was an architect and what was termed a “social architect.” He liked to build expensive homes for the wealthy. According to the Boca Raton Historical Society & Museum, he created fabulous Palm Beach Mansions, unlike mansions up north. It was his design for the Everglades Club that introduced Mediterranean style architecture to the resort.

Addison Mizner had grand plans to make Boca Raton a playground for the wealthy. He built The Cloisters, a hotel which has morphed into the famed Boca Raton Resort & Country Club today. There is an area in East Boca called Old Floresta, where, according to legend, he built homes for his friends and workers. You will notice that many things in Boca are called Addison or Mizner. And now you know why!

Florida can be humid – our average is about 70 percent. Some days tend to be more humid while others are not humid at all.

Hurricanes: Yes, we get them. That being said, it’s my opinion that pretty much anywhere you live in the United States, you get something – blizzards, Nor’easters, earthquakes or tornadoes. I’ve lived in the Boca/Delray/Boynton area for 24 years and we’ve gone through two bad hurricane seasons. The good thing is that they give you warning so you have time to leave, if that’s what you want to do.
