Getting around

Downtown, I-95, schools and medical services are close, though most daily trips are easiest by car.

A little history

Old Floresta was developed during Boca Raton's 1920s building boom and remains one of the city's most recognizable historic neighborhoods.

Living here

The appeal is character, shade and central location rather than master-planned uniformity.

Visiting for the first time

Respect the residential setting while viewing historic architecture, then continue into downtown for public attractions.

Architectural character

Old Floresta preserves a distinctive chapter of Boca Raton's Mediterranean Revival development.

A central neighborhood

Residents are minutes from downtown while living on quieter, tree-lined streets.
