Worth Avenue, Luxury shopping street in Palm Beach, Florida.
Worth Avenue is a four-block shopping street in Palm Beach stretching from the lake to the ocean, featuring Mediterranean architecture with mahogany ceilings and decorative archways. The street houses international luxury brands, local boutiques, art galleries, and restaurants that form a cohesive shopping and dining destination.
The street was named in 1913 after General William Jenkins Worth, and the construction of the Everglades Club in 1918 launched its commercial development. The area subsequently became a major destination for wealthy shoppers and visitors.
The street serves as a gathering place for affluent visitors and residents who combine shopping and dining in one location. Its arched passages and courtyards create an enclosed, refined setting that shapes how people move through and experience the space.
The area is best explored on foot, as the four blocks are easily walkable and parking is available throughout the neighborhood. It helps to wear comfortable shoes since you will spend considerable time walking and the courtyards encourage lingering.
Small pedestrian passages called vias branch off from the main street and contain hidden courtyards with garden artwork and specialty shops that add depth to the street. These tucked-away spots offer surprising moments as you wander between the better-known stores.
