Ponce de Leon explored areas
along Florida's Gulf coast in 1513 & 1521. The barrier
islands of Lee County are believed to be one of his many stops.
Spanish and Cuban settlers created temporary fishing and farming
camps along the coast, but for years Southwest Florida was
a rugged and isolated area.
The fort was abandoned in 1858 and reoccupied by Federal troops
from 1863-1865. The Southernmost battle of the Civil War,
a skirmish between Northern and Southern troops occurred across
the river in 1865 and is reenacted annually at the North Fort
Myers Cracker Festival.
The fort itself was disassembled, and some of the wood used
in construction of some of the first buildings in what would
become downtown Fort Myers. No more than ten families lived
in the original town when it was platted in 1876.
In the years since World War II, the city has grown along
with Lee County and the rest of Southwest Florida. Commercial
and residential growth has pushed development in all directions
to create Cape Coral, North Fort Myers and Lehigh, as well
as adding to the coastal settlements of Fort Myers Beach,
Pine Island, Sanibel and Captiva Islands, and Bonita Springs.
Fortunately, the older downtown area and the City of Fort
Myers historic districts have retained much of their charm,
and proper preservation measures are in place to ensure that
charm will be treasured for many generations to come.
