Altamonte Springs is now home to more than 40,000 residents. Developed into a winter resort town in the late 1800s during the area's first tourism boom, Altamonte Springs became a sunny playground for the wealthy and an oasis for those requiring a "healing" environment in which to recuperate from various ailments. Times were good, but this was just the beginnng of the once tiny village's growth and prosperity.
From the era when rolling pineland along the lakes drew the first
settlers to the area that would become Altamonte Springs, this community
has attracted visitors and new residents from far and wide. The early
railroad transported winter tourists who sought the medicinal qualities
of local springs, and this influx of people led to the development of
many businesses, including Fuller's Store, the grand Altamonte Hotel,
and the Jasmine Theater. After surviving the challenges brought about by
the Great Freeze of 1894-1895, the city continued to
grow, and its citizens, with an unyielding spirit, continued to work, worship, socialized, and raise families in the community they called home. Today, Altamonte Springs is the bustling retail center of Seminole County, Florida. Excellent shopping is available, including one of the largest regional malls in Central Florida. One of the finest hospital facilities (Florida Hospital Altamonte) in the Central Florida area is also located within our city. It is a residential community which is strong in both young families and senior citizens working together to maintain an ideal environment for community stability.
