Strolling down the street of Fifth Avenue in Naples nobody wonders that this city is home for the most Millionaires in the United States.
The city’s first residents were the Calusa Indians. Followed many years later in 1860’s, the first settlers, Roger Gordon and Joe Wiggins came to the area to crave a new life for their family. A river was named for Gordon and the famous Wiggins Pass was named for Joe Wiggins.
In the 1870’s and 1880’s, Naples, named after the Italian peninsula, began to be promoted in newspapers and magazine for its sunny mild climate and beautiful beaches. As the news spread, Naples became a winter resort for the wealthy and the Naples Hotel became the social life for the town. The Naples Hotel played host to many celebrities and a few you may have heard of are Thomas Edison, Harvey Firestone and Rose Cleveland, who was the First Lady during her brother Grover Cleveland Presidency.
In early 1900’s the area attracted wealthy Barron Gift Collier. On a visit he and his wife fell in love with Southwest Florida and on a trip he purchased Useppa Island for $100,000. The island was named Useppa by the famous pirate, Jose Gaspar for his favorite female captives. He built one of the most exclusive sporting clubs in the world on Useppa named Izaak Walton Club.
Collier began to move South and was responsible for building the Tamiami Trail (US 41) to connect Florida’s two largest cities, Miami and Tampa. By promising Florida legislature to build the highway, the legislature created Collier County and made Naples the county seat. Growth was greatly anticipated after the railroad reached Naples and the Tamiami Trail was completed. Unfortunately the Depression and WW II hampered the growth. In WW II the Army Air Force even built a small air field and used it for training purposes and it is now Naples Municipal Airport.
After the opening of the Tamiami Trail, a new night club, Club 41, became a haunt of Hollywood Stars. Some enjoying Naples Club 41 are said to have been Greta Garbo, Gary Cooper, Hedy Lamar, Lawrence Tibbets, Gertrude Lawrence, and Gloria Swanson. Another famous visitor to Naples made a unique approach to Naples. In 1932 Charles “Lucky” Lindbergh landed his plane on the small golf course that was at the end of Fifth Avenue. His trip was to pick up supplies for his retreat in Sanibel.
