I grew up in the next town up, Delray Beach and know the mall well. Great cars in the lots and what the women weren't born with around there, they bought
16 of us from way up here moved to Boca for the winter of 73. Turned 21 there that winter. As a matter of fact, we still have the Welcome to Boca Raton sign displayed in a secret location

. The sign rode home in the back of my '63 Corvair van. Coral Springs was not built yet, but we worked on it. Most of us moved home the following summer, but several stayed. One raised his family just south of there. One moved to Delray Beach, where we visited annually for the next several years for a winter break--all before kids.
