Palm Beach conjures up vivid images of beautiful beaches, extravagant shopping, sprawling mansions, beautiful people, and historic architecture, but it would not be as iconic without John Volk’s architecture. Volk is one of Palm Beach’s premier “Society Architects”. He is the architect behind some of Palm Beach’s most notable landmarks including the Royal Poinciana Plaza, the Beach Club, and the 1944 renovation of the Bath and Tennis Club. Volk also designed homes for such notable families as Ford, Dodge, DuPont, Pulitzer, and Vanderbilt.
