Details
It’s difficult to believe you’re surrounded by downtown West Palm Beach thanks to the dense tropical foliage, which includes more than 300 identified species of palms. Mazy paths allow you to get lost in this urban forest, with niches for sculpture and contemplation.
Tour both Norton’s home, now a museum devoted to the period of her work, and her studio, freeze-framed in time, in a historic residential neighborhood.
