Cap's Station

Thought to be Pompano Beach's oldest residential structure, the 1910 Cap Campbell house sits at the corner of NE 3rd Street and 4th Avenue, but this was not where it was constructed.

Cap Campbell built the house on the southwest corner of NE 1st Street and 1st Avenue.

Sometime in the 1920s, Cambell moved the house to its curent location and then built a gas station on the site.

In the 1940s, Moe Hirshman purchased the station and leased it out for a while before having it demolished to build the Pompano Pharmacy.
