helping the City of Fort Lauderdale establish itself as
a world-class international business center and one of
the most desirable locations for new, expanding or
relocating businesses. Once known strictly as a
tourism-based economy, Fort Lauderdale now supports a
diverse range of industries, including marine,
manufacturing, finance, insurance, real estate, high
technology, avionics/aerospace, film and television
production. Fort Lauderdale also offers an outstanding
quality of life, highlighted by a semi-tropical climate,
rich natural beauty and array of cultural, entertainment
and educational amenities. Blessed with over 3,000 hours
of sunshine each year and pleasant year-round ocean
breezes, world-famous Fort Lauderdale Beach offers
premier opportunities for recreation, relaxation and
enjoyment. The picturesque Riverwalk serves as the
cornerstone of the City's arts, science, cultural and
historic district which features the Broward Center for
the Performing Arts, Museum of Discovery and Science,
Museum of Art and Old Fort Lauderdale Village and
Museum. Las Olas Boulevard has gained international
acclaim as Fort Lauderdale's centerpiece of fashion,
fine dining and entertainment. In addition, the City's
