Birds eye view in 1997 looking west


A few things to notice: 41 was only 4 lanes, old trailer park by Imperial intersection had just been bulldozed, Cove Towers yet to be built, last of Pelican Isle buildings under construction, Wiggins Pass Marina was still standing and 2 strip plazas at Imperial Blvd had yet to be built

Great pic from the mid 50's


Classic picture of a very rural Naples Park and Vanderbilt.On the upper left side you can see just the tip of Grand Canal Dr. Also notice the Cocohatchee River as it winds thru what is now Palm River before they dredged the Immokalee Rd. Canal. You can also see the railway and the bridge crossing over the river.Check out the north end of Vanderbilt where not all of the canals had yet to be finished

Anybody recognize this?


This is La Playa back when there wasn't much happening at Vanderbilt Beach(early 70's?)
