Golden Gate

Located in Southwest Florida, Golden Gate is considered part of the Naples-Marco Island metropolitan area. Established in the 1950s, the history of Golden Gate was mired in controversy. After excavators drained the water from an area largely considered swampland, developers from the Gulf American Land Company sold the plots of land with the promise to build a community. While many buyers purchased the land, many were from northern states and did not travel down to the site to see the actual plots. As such, they were not aware that basic infrastructure had not been put in place. The developers went bankrupt, ultimately not making good on their promise to build a community. This left many investors with nothing more than swampland for years.
