The city is a popular tourist
destination, with 10.35 million visitors in 2006. Fort Lauderdale is sometimes
known as the "Venice of America" because of its expansive and intricate
canal system. The city is a major yachting center, with 42,000 resident
yachts and 100 marinas and boatyards. The city sits 23 miles north of Miami,
Florida. Fort Lauderdale and the surrounding area host over 4100 restaurants

Fort Lauderdale is named
after a series of forts built by the United States during the Second Seminole
War. The forts took their name from Major William Lauderdale, who was the
commander of the detachment of soldiers who built the first fort. However,
development of the city did not begin until 50 years after the forts were
abandoned at the end of the conflict. Three forts named "Fort Lauderdale"
were constructed; the first was at the fork of the New River, the second
at Tarpon Bend, in what is now known as the Sailboat Bend neighborhood,
and the third near the site of the Bahia Mar Marina. |

SAINT
PETERSBURG BED & BREAKFASTS, FLORIDA, USA
|
|
St. Petersburg (often shortened
to St. Pete) is a city in Pinellas County, Florida, United States. The
city is known as a vacation destination for North American and European
vacationers. St. Petersburg is the second largest city in the Tampa Bay
Area, which is composed of roughly 2.7 million residents, making it the
second largest Metropolitan Statistical Area in the state.
The
city is commonly referred to by locals as "St. Pete"; neighboring St. Pete
Beach, Florida formally shortened its name in 1994 after a vote by its
residents.
The city is located on a
peninsula between Tampa Bay and the Gulf of Mexico. It is connected to
the mainland to the north, connected with the city of Tampa to the east
by causeways and bridges across Tampa Bay, and to Bradenton in the south
by the Sunshine Skyway Bridge (Interstate 275), which traverses the mouth
of the bay. It is also served by Interstates 175 and 375, which branch
off I-275 into the southern and northern areas of downtown respectively.
The Gandy Bridge, conceived by George Gandy and opened in 1924, was the
first causeway to be built across Tampa Bay, connecting St. Petersburg
and Tampa cities without a circuitous 43-mile (69 km) trip around the Bay
through Oldsmar.
With a purported average
of some 360 days of sunshine each year, it is nicknamed "The Sunshine City."
For that reason, the city is a popular tourist and retirement destination,
especially for those in the United States from colder Northern climates
– particularly New York City, Detroit, and Chicago. However, in recent
years the population has shifted in a more youthful direction. |
