Imagine young Frank Stranahan winning the hand of Miss Ivy Cromartie, the town's first teacher, and building her a home so charming and enduring it survives today as a unique museum.

Mission
The mission of the Historic Stranahan House Museum is twofold: 1) To tell the story of the birth of our community through the lives of two extraordinary people and the homestead they created, and 2) to serve as an enduring legacy for historic preservation.

Company Overview

Stranahan House was built in 1901 by Frank Stranahan, Fort Lauderdale’s founding father, and his wife Ivy Cromartie Stranahan, the area’s first school teacher. The house has served as a trading post, post office, community center, town hall and home to the Stranahans. The Stranahan House has stood at the center of Fort Lauderdales growth since it was built and played a significant role in the economic and social life of this community.
