The History section needs a new beginning. Probably something like, "Until the fifties the area was agricultural/scrub/whatever. Then George and Richard Rosen, two brothers who had experience in real estate development in Chicago/Philadelphia/Sarasota, bought a tract of zz thousand acres from John and Mary Doe, paying, according to county records, xx cents per acre on July 4, 1776. They easily/with difficulty obtained permits from the County and their architect, Frank Lloyd Saarinen, designed an entire city/residential area." Et cetera. Thanks to someone who can write this.

As of 6/26/2006, the map looks right. I live in Cape Coral also.
--orig--
Is it me or is the Picture upside down? (Cape Coral is on the N & W side of the Caloosahatchee. tww
Photo is upside down, and if I am not mistaken, NS is divided by Pine Island Road. pjr
The picture *IS* upside-down
I live there, and I can tell you for a fact the image is 180 degrees off...

<nitpicking continued> As of 3/1/06 the picture now only looks about 10-15 degrees off line if north is assumed to be top center. The article is correct as far as the seperators for the NE/NW/SE/SW go. If you look towards the west end of the city you will find SE addresses north of Pine Island Road. (BTW I live here also.) tww Clix 03:52, 2 March 2006 (UTC) </nitpicking continued>

Interesting fact: A large portion of the Cape Coral population calls this place "Cape Coma."
Dont you think there should be some acknowledgement of the canal system? Cape Coral used to be swamp land, there for the need to dig canals to raise the ground level. There is over 400 miles of them also, they are salt and fresh water also. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 72.240.186.22 ( talk) 17:06, 5 April 2007 (UTC).
Calling it boosterism is simply ridiculous. ReignMan ( talk) 06:29, 29 August 2008 (UTC)
I've just run into 2 News articles that talk about the terrible effects that the Housing bubble burst is having on Cape Coral.
So I am really surprised to see that this article neither mentions the over construction nor addresses the effects of the Housing Bubble bursting.
I hope that this sort of highly negative information is not being avoided and/or censored from the article.

Proposing that article Cape Coral, Florida Police Department be merged as a section into this article. It's brief, unreferenced and would fit well. Chuckiesdad ( talk) 04:39, 24 December 2008 (UTC)

Nice lizard pic, but what does the city look like? This city is so much bigger than Fort Myers, which ironically seems like a better known city in that county. So, why not have some pics of the city and/or its skyline? YellowAries2010 ( talk) 04:27, 23 February 2012 (UTC)

I added a new satellite photo (replacing an older, less-detailed one), put a new photo in the infobox, and did minor cleanup. Another editor reverted the whole thing, commenting "Why would we make a picture of this single home the infobox picture?"
OK, pick something else. Please don't just revert multiple edits for one objection. Thanks -- Pete Tillman ( talk) 21:17, 30 July 2016 (UTC)
Agree completely with Niteshift36. This photo has no place in the article, much less as the primary illustration in the article. It's a frikken house. It is illustrative of absolutely nothing of the subject of the article. John from Idegon ( talk) 05:05, 4 August 2016 (UTC)

If I understand the text correctly, Gulf American Land Corporation is abbreviated as both GALC and GAC in the article. That should be harmonized. I'm not sure which abbreviation should be preferred. - Donald Albury 15:51, 9 June 2018 (UTC)
