Not so long ago, Port Saint Lucie (or Port St. Lucie) was simply a fishing camp located just north of the St. Lucie Fork River and south of Fort Pierce. In the 1950s, bridges were built to allow vehicles to easily access what was first known as River Park and later became the City of Port St. Lucie in 1961. As it is a newer city the homes here are from that era and in fact, the city even has a 1950s era styled housing development that was built in 2006. Initially it was built to be a residential area but it quickly turned into a tourist destination. The city now has a population of 155,251.
The town square is called Tradition Square and was chosen by HGTV as one of America’s 100 Best Cities in 2009. The city is home to Tradition Field, which is home to the New York Mets Spring Training. The city is also known for its PGA Village golf courses and Port St. Lucie golf course.
There is only one gay bar, called the ReBar in town but the city has a large gay population that is integrated into the whole community ~ the city does hold a Gay Pride celebration every year that is well-attended. Fort Lauderdale and Wilton Manors are near enough so that LGBT residents can enjoy some of the gay night-life in a larger city. It is best to consult with a Port Saint Lucie gay realtor to find the best property investment for you.
