Celebrating Our Neighborhoods!
Join us this year as we celebrate some of Delray’s historic and iconic neighborhoods.
By invitation only & free to neighborhood residents.
Marina District & Beach Neighborhood: Cookout, bar, music, special Marina & Beach exhibit & more!
The Marina Historic District: Situated on the Intracoastal Waterway and built around the town’s City Marina, the district displays a variety of architectural styles blending into a lush sub-tropical landscape. The district displays various architectural styles ranging from Mediterranean and Mission Revival to Monterrey, Florida Cottages, and Art Moderne, most constructed between 1922 and 1943. With its narrow and shaded streets and the city marina as a focal point, this is the town’s most pedestrian-friendly neighborhood.
Nassau Park was the City’s first planned residential development south of Atlantic Avenue. It was intended to compliment the surrounding resorts and hotels along South Ocean Boulevard, and recalls the prosperity, pleasure, and style, which was the essence of the 1930s Delray Beach resort life. The scale, dimension, and proportion of these modest homes reflect a time when people with money did not want to flaunt it. The district is home to 17 one- and two-story cottages built in the Cape Cod Revival and Minimal Traditional styles, dating from 1935 to 1941. Distinctive horizontal clapboard siding, multi-paned windows and elaborate doorways define these classic cottages.
Family friendly event. Free to Beach and Marina District residents only.
