Midtown

Midtown is an informal district rather than a legal boundary: guides describe it as running from roughly Royal Palm Way on the north, which carries the Royal Park Bridge from downtown West Palm Beach, south to the Gulfstream Road area, with the Atlantic Ocean on the east and the Lake Worth lagoon on the west. The town's own Mid-Town municipal beach and the Midtown seawall project are officially described as running from Royal Palm Way on the north to Gulfstream Road on the south along South Ocean Boulevard. The South End begins south of Sloan's Curve.

Sold and asking data, 2025 to October 2026

The district's single-family market is a step below the Estate Section but comfortably in the millions: the February 2025 sale of a rebuilt 1924 house on Brazilian Avenue closed at $15.5 million, and surrounding in-town houses list across the single-digit to mid-eight-figure range. Boutique condominiums near Royal Palm Way and the avenue trade in the multi-million range for renovated units, with the town's broader condo median around $1.5 to $1.8 million across 2025. All figures are dated and property-specific: confirm the current read with Kelby.

The island's public school, Palm Beach Public School at 239 Cocoanut Row, serves grades PK through 5; grades 6 through 12 are zoned off-island by address through The School District of Palm Beach County. Verify current boundaries with the school district before relying on any zone.

School boundaries change and are set by address, never by community name: verify current boundaries with The School District of Palm Beach County before relying on any assignment.

Midtown carries the town's in-town residential and condominium zoning: height and density follow the district schedule, and designated landmarks in the district (including homes near Town Hall Square, one of the town's local historic districts) need Landmarks Preservation Commission review for exterior changes. The no-short-term-rental rule and the roughly 90-day minimum rental apply island-wide. Verify current rules with the town before planning work or a rental.
