As noted before, a number of local roads are named after pioneer Pompano farmers. One such is Lyons Road:

Lyons Road, now a major north-south thoroughfare, originally stretched from Palm Beach County south to Cypress Creek (the C-14 canal), then turned west at what is now West Atlantic Boulevard to dead end at the Two Mile Canal (now Riverside Drive in Coral Springs). Portions of Lyons Road came into existence north of what is now Coconut Creek Parkway simple because drainage of an agricultural area known as Punkin Swamp required digging of shale and sludge that was piled up alongside a drainage ditch. Flattened out, it became the base of a road that was eventually paved.
