About

Hollywood's oceanfront is defined by the Broadwalk, a 2.5-mile paved promenade running along the beach, separating low- and mid-rise hotels and condominiums from the sand; the 17-story Margaritaville resort rises beside it at Johnson Street. Inland, a separate downtown arts and entertainment district built around Harrison Street and Young Circle, where the 10-acre ArtsPark holds a performing-arts pavilion and visual-arts studios, keeps its own identity apart from the beach. Between the two, the Hollywood Lakes section is a residential district of its own, with homes along North Lake, South Lake and the Intracoastal.
