Old Naples History   

Old Naples, the historic heart of the city, traces its origins back to the late 1800s, founded as a winter retreat and sport fishing destination by figures like Kentucky Senator John Stuart Williams and Walter N. Halderman in 1886. Key historical landmarks include the Naples Pier, built in 1888 and the original only entry point for boat access, and the Palm Cottage, constructed in 1895 and now serving as Naples' oldest home and a house museum maintained by the Naples Historical Society. 

Old Naples is the city's original and most emulated neighborhood, founded in the late 1880s as a winter retreat. It is renowned for its rich history, preserved architecture, and pedestrian-friendly lifestyle, offering a unique blend of old-world charm and modern sophistication. 

Key Historical Aspects of Old Naples

Founding and Early Development:

Naples was established in 1886 by a group of investors, with the initial development focusing on its appeal as a winter retreat and a hub for fishing. The area was envisioned as a "newItaly" due to its sunny climate, which helped the name stick. 

The Naples Pier:

Constructed in 1888, the Naples Pier was crucial for the town's accessibility as it was the sole entry point by boat until the completion of Highway 41 in 1929. 

Palm Cottage:

Built in 1895 by Walter Halderman, Palm Cottage is a significant historical structure located near the Naples Pier and serves as a museum showcasing Naples' past. 

Infrastructure and Growth:

Early 20th-century developments included the construction of the Naples Company Building, a two-cell jail, and the establishment of electric and water plants. In 1918, the first shell road from Fort Myers to Naples was completed, improving land access. 

Architectural Style:

Old Naples is characterized by a blend of historical architectural styles, including original Florida-style cottages, Mediterranean-inspired estates, and later, Victorian and bungalow homes, alongside modern luxury developments. 

Preservation and Tourism:

The Naples Historical Society plays a vital role in preserving the area's heritage, offering walking tours and maintaining historic sites like Palm Cottage. The area continues to be a desirable residential neighborhood, known for its upscale properties, lush surroundings, and proximity to natural preserves like the Big Cypress National Preserve.
