Winter Park was founded as a resort destination by wealthy New England Industrialists before the turn of the 20th century. It is well known for being the first centrally planned community in Florida; its main street includes not only public civic buildings and retail, but also art galleries, a liberal arts college, museums, a park, a train station, a golf course country club, a historic cemetery, and a beach and boat launch. Winter Park is celebrated for its sense of place and history, rare in Central Florida. Many structures are more than 100 years old. In addition to the scenic beauty of its lakes, brick avenues, and oak and camphor canopy, Winter Park draws thousands of visitors to annual festivals including the Bach Festival, the nationally ranked Sidewalk Art Festival, and the Winter Park Concours d'Elegance.
The City of Winter Park is nestled among the Winter Park Chain of Lakes, a series of aquifer fed lakes interconnected by a series of navigable canals, which were originally created for flood control and to run logs to a sawmill on present day Lake Virginia. The lakes are popular for boating, watersports, fishing, and swimming.
