Prior to incorporation in 1959, the City of Lauderhill mostly consisted of dairy pastures and everglades swamp land. The development of single family neighborhoods began in the 1960’s and the Lauderhill Mall, the first the first enclosed air-conditioned mall to open in the southeastern United States, opened in 1966. In 1970, the Inverrary Country Club and Golf Course was opened in Lauderhill. With the promotional help of famous comedian/actor Jackie Gleason, Inverrary and Lauderhill quickly became a popular destination for wealthy northerners that were either retired or looking for a second home. As South Florida and Broward County experienced continued growth throughout the 1970’s, 80’s, and 90’s, development continued to spread west of Lauderhill into communities such as Sunrise, Miramar, and Weston.
