'''Fort Myers''' is a city in southwest [[Florida]], known for its beaches.

[[American]] industrialists [[Thomas Edison]] and [[Henry Ford]] owned homes in the city which they used as winter retreats (the homes were next door to each other; Ford considered Edison his mentor); the city ultimately acquired both homes and operates them as a museum and tourist attraction.

The main campus of [[Florida Gulf Coast University]] is located in the city.
