Prediction

From the Pompano Beach Town News, August 20, 1959:
Margate folk can hardly be blamed for feeling that they'll be at the hub of all North Broward someday. The coastal cities will have to accept the fact that eventually State Rd. 7 , and not Federal Hwy., will be South Florida's heartland artery. At some point between West Palm Beach and Miami, there'll be a lot more people living west of State Rd. 7 than east of it.
This was written four years after the incorporation of Margate, and before Coral Springs, Coconut Creek, Parkland or North Lauderdale came into being.
