Edison Park Historic District, located between McGregor Boulevard and US-41 (Cleveland Avenue), is a historic and residential Fort Myers neighborhood with brick-lined streets and mature tree canopies. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the McGregor Boulevard and Edison Avenue corridor, where shaded sidewalks frame a calm, old-Florida streetscape. Early-20th-century bungalows and mid-century ranch homes sit behind deep lawns and low garden walls. Downtown Fort Myers’ River District adds galleries and theaters nearby, with the Sidney & Berne Davis Art Center and the Florida Repertory Theatre as cultural anchors. Edison and Ford Winter Estates grounds and gardens reinforce the area’s heritage. Pocket parks and the riverfront set a walk-and-bike rhythm.
