Biographical:
Detroit (Fla.) was founded in 1908, and renamed Florida City in 1914. Sawgrass marshes were drained there, and land was sold for agriculture. Fresh water for the Florida East Coast Railway Oversea Extension (steam locomotives and human consumption) came from the mainland rather than from limited Florida Keys freshwater sources.
