Worth Avenue is the richest shopping street on the East Coast of Florida if not America. The thoroughfare runs between the Atlantic Ocean to Lake Worth. The litany of high-end stores along the four blocks west of South County Road read like a pantheon of luxury. Worshipers of wealth can shed their riches at Giorgio Armani, Neiman Marcus, Cartier, Louis Vuitton, Tiffany & Co., Hermès, Polo Ralph Lauren, Gucci, and Chanel.
After dark Palm Beachites frequent the restaurants within the alleys or vias.
By 10pm Worth Avenue is a ghost town and I walked from the beach to my hotel, the Chesterfield, without seeing a single living soul. Only a Duncan Hanson statue guarded the temple of exquisite consumerism. The plastic-form police officer was waiting for a billionaire to take him home, otherwise Worth Avenue population past midnight was pop. 1.
Me.
The Palm Beach City Council could animate the famous street with fake people less expensive than the Duane Hanson statue. Blow-up dolls from a sex shop would give the some life. Almost like a combat zone of silent street walkers dressed in the hand-me-downs of the rich.
Quelle class.
