Discover Cape Coral
Cape Coral, on the Gulf in Lee County, lies on land the Calusa inhabited at the time of Juan Ponce de León's expedition; they are believed to have dug a canoe canal across the peninsula from Matlacha Pass to Yellow Fever Creek, a tributary of the Caloosahatchee River, though development has erased all trace of it. After Florida became a state in 1845, homesteaders bought and sold land in the area.
More about Cape Coral
The city's modern history began in 1957, when brothers Leonard and Jack Rosen, real estate developers from Baltimore, flew over the peninsula called Redfish Point across the river from Fort Myers. With a small group of partners they bought a 103-square-mile tract for $678,000 and in 1958 began building a planned community. Their Gulf American Land Corporation won county approval to master-plan the whole property into lots and broke with traditional real estate sales: instead of listing lots with agents, it held dinner parties in hotel banquet rooms, offering a free dinner for two, where trained sales teams could close a deal in 90 minutes, with buyers agreeing to visit within six months and cancel if not satisfied. Cape Coral grew to more than 194,000 people by 2020. Sources Wikipedia: Cape Coral, Florida
