About doing business in Fort Myers
Fort Myers sits on the Caloosahatchee River. Its downtown, the River District, has brick streets, restaurants and waterfront parks, and the Edison and Ford Winter Estates are a short drive away on McGregor Boulevard.
The city has its own business tax and its own building department, separate from Lee County. That matters to contractors: the paperwork depends on whether a job is inside city limits or in unincorporated Fort Myers.
