It has been almost 100 years since Thomas Edison decided to make Fort Myers his own winter retreat and build a classical Florida home along McGregor:

Thomas Edison & Ford Winter Estates . Since then this renowned area near 2350 McGregor Boulevard, Fort Myers 33901 is known as the Edison Park and part of The Historical District of Fort Myers.And yes living in such an area is affordable. prices start in the low to mid $100’s.

Fort Myers owes much to Edison and Ford. Among a few: he was the first to have a swimming pool in 1910, electric light bulbs of course, the beautifying of Fort Myers with the majestic royal palms along our boulevards, ergo the name the City Of Palms,exotic and glorious plants, ….and above all with Ford they put Fort Myers on the map for good.Surprisingly living next to Thomas Edison’s home cost much less then one would think:   Historic District homes

   Since then many are drawn to this Historical area of Fort Myers which includes also such subdivision as Dean Park with its rich mix of different European architecture and Downtown Fort Myers or The River District:
