Stranahan House stands on its original location at the New River in downtown Fort Lauderdale.It has been the site most closely associated with the founding of the City and its economic and social development.Frank Stranahan originally selected the site because it was where he operated his barge ferry across the river as part of the new road from Lantana to what is now North Miami.
Today,Stranahan House is the eastern anchor of River Walk,a linear waterfront park connecting Fort Lauderdale's historic district with the soon to be created cultural district anchored by the Performing Arts Center and the Museum of Discovery and Science.
Built as a trading post for settlers and the Seminole Indians in 1901,it quickly evolved into the post office,community center and town hall as Frank became Fort Lauderdale's first postmaster,a banker and businessman.He married another pioneer,Ivy Julia Cromartie,the area's first school teacher,and it was not long before dances and community festivals were held on the upper floor of the house.In 1906,it became the Stranahan's personal residence and remained so until Ivy Stranahan's death in 1971.
