Flamingo Park, located between Downtown West Palm Beach and Lake Worth Lagoon, is a historic and residential West Palm Beach neighborhood with a grid of palm-lined streets and a pocket-park rhythm. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Palm Beach County Convention Center and Rosemary Avenue, where galleries, coffee counters, and design-forward storefronts set a polished, walkable tempo. Early-20th-century bungalows and Mediterranean Revival homes sit beside newer townhomes, keeping the streetscape varied but cohesive. Howard Park’s courts and open lawns anchor daily routines, while the nearby waterfront paths pull the landscape toward the Intracoastal. Norton Museum of Art, Grandview Public Market, and CityPlace act as cultural pillars that shape the area’s calendar.
