Boca Raton, Florida, was a tiny farming community on the southeastern coast of Florida when the state\'s 1920s real estate boom grew into a national phenomenon.
The plans included a gigantic oceanfront hotel, elegant mansions, golf.
Investors and new residents were drawn to the state from all over the country, a time Floridians referred to as "the Boom." In April 1925, well-known Palm Beach society architect Addison Mizner revealed his plans for an ambitious new development in Boca Raton.
