About
Boca Raton's architectural character dates to Addison Mizner, whose Mediterranean Revival plans from the 1920s still leave traces on civic buildings and in the older residential blocks. Downtown centers on Mizner Park, where an open-air amphitheater sits among shops and restaurants. In the western and inland parts of the city, golf-course communities and office parks cover much of the ground.

Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions on buying and investing here
Why is Boca Raton famous?
Mostly its architecture. Boca Raton, a Palm Beach County city, incorporated in 1925, and Addison Mizner was appointed its planner soon after. His Mediterranean Revival style still marks public landmarks like the 1927 Old Town Hall.
What kinds of homes can you buy in Boca Raton?
Golf-course communities, condos, and homes built near the office and business strips. Old Floresta became the city's first historic district in 1990, and it began with 29 houses that Mizner designed in 1925.
Where are the main landmarks and amenities in Boca Raton?
Mizner Park is what holds downtown together: shops, plus an open-air amphitheater. Inland, a strip of low-rise office parks takes over.
What should I check before buying a home in Boca Raton?
Club membership. A lot of communities tie you to a golf or country club, and what that costs is a separate bill from your regular HOA dues. Before you buy, find out which memberships are mandatory and which you can skip.
How do I get around Boca Raton?
Interstate 95 and Federal Highway both run through the city. Mizner Park and the downtown core are each easy to stroll on their own. The Brightline station is on NW 4th Street, close to Mizner Park, and its trains link downtown with Miami and West Palm Beach.
