        Before – Here’s Charles Cooper, now 81, as he looked
        in 1960 when he lived in the shack shown here. Cooper
        was the first inhabitant of Palm Beach Gardens and its
        only occupant when the 1960 census was taken. The little
        city this week was reported to be the fastest growing
        municipality, percentage-wise, in the United States by
        the Census Bureau.


























        After – Cooper stands in front of the ruins of the shack
        he burned in 1960 and talks it over with multimillionaire
        John D. MacArthur who bought the 9½-mile tract and
        incorporated Palm Beach Gardens in 1960.
