History of The Acreage
In 1956, Samuel Nathan Friedland, a Philadelphia supermarket magnate, acquired the 100-square-mile Indian Trail Ranch from Southern States Land and Timber Company. A year after, The Indian Trail Improvement District (which was then The Indian Trail Water Control District) was then founded to maintain roads and canals.
In the 1960’s Friedland cultivated the land and planted 12,000 citrus trees so that he can sell fruits in his store. Together with other growers, Callery-Judge Groves was able to to purchase some of the groves from Friedland. Other sections of Friedland’s land was developed into Pratt and Whitney Aircraft and the J. W. Corbett National Wildlife Refuge.
It was in 1959 when Lefcourt Corporation purchased 3,750 acres of Friedland’s land to construct Royal Palm Beach. The land that remained located south of the Wildlife Refuge and north of Royal Palm Beach then became the community of “The Acreage”. Royal Palm Beach Colony, Ltd., a company owned by Friedland, actively marketed the lots in the community selling them for $5,000 per acre requiring $95 as down payment and monthly payments at $25. At that time, buyers visited the lots but only found swampland. Also, Palm Beach County could not release building permits since they had not received an approved drainage plan issued by the South Florida Water Management District. One by one, variances for land use were granted to each owner and in 1978 they were finally able to form their association to address issues with their properties, with drainage issues being one of their top most priorities.
In the 1980’s, The Acreage held a contest to select a new name for the area but with even more than 60 new names to choose from, the residents voted to keep the original name “The Acreage”.
Today, the population of The Acreage has grown to 40,000 residents who enjoy the community’s unique rural, equestrian, and agricultural lifestyle.
