Hollywood was founded by visionary planner Joseph Wesley
Young in the early 1920s and officially incorporated on
November 28, 1925. Young wanted to build his “Dream City
in Florida”-- a city for everyone from the “opulent at the top
of the social ladder to the humblest working people”. Young
also provided the inspiration and helped secure the financing
to create Port Everglades in 1928. Eighty percent of the Port is
located within Hollywood’s city limits. Today, the Port is among
the busiest in the country -from visithollywoodfl.org Click Here for live Hollywood Beach Cam
