Like many other Florida cities during World War II, the city of Boca Raton housed a military base. A US Army Air Force base for B 29 Bomber crews and US Training Radar Operators was once on the land that is now the Boca Raton Airport and Florida Atlantic University. Today, FAU sprawls over 850 acres and has a student enrollment of over 24,000 undergraduates.

In the 1960’s, IBM purchased hundreds of acres of land in the northern area of Boca Raton between Spanish River and Yamato Road. The IBM Campus was the birthplace of the IBM PC and was a vital research lab and think tank for the computer giant.

IBM remained in the Boca Raton area through 1996. The area is now Innovation Campus and home to a wide number of IT and technology companies. IBM returned to Boca Raton in July 2001, opening the software development laboratory at Beacon Square off Congress Avenue. An area that used to be an IBM building was donated to the Palm Beach County School District and converted into Don Estridge High Tech Middle School. It is named after Estridge, who led the team responsible for developing the IBM PC.

The city of Boca Raton also is known for its strict development codes regarding the size and types of commercial buildings, building signs, and advertisements that may be placed within the city corridor.
