About South
End
South End, located between Downtown West Palm Beach and Lake Worth Beach, is a residential and waterfront West Palm Beach neighborhood with a palm-lined Intracoastal edge and a low-rise, Old Florida streetscape. The neighborhood’s character concentrates along South Dixie Highway near Southern Boulevard, where design studios, local cafes, and small storefronts set a polished, lived-in rhythm. Architectural cues lean mid-century ranch homes, Mediterranean Revival touches, and updated cottages behind mature trees. The Lake Trail frames daily movement with water views and shaded stretches for walking and biking. Anchors such as Grato, Hive Bakery & Cafe, and the Cox Science Center and Aquarium help define the area’s local routine. Pocket parks and the Intracoastal shoreline keep the pace outdoors and close to the water.
