A major east-west thoroughfare and commuter corridor through central Lee County, Florida State Road 884 and Lee County Road 884 make up a 37.6 mile arc connecting Cape Coral, Fort Myers and Lehigh Acres.

Spanning the Caloosahatchee River via the Veterans Midpoint Memorial Bridge into Fort Myers, CR 884 follows Colonial Boulevard along an urban corridor to its first end at a SPUI with U.S. 41 (Cleveland Avenue).
SR 884 continues east along Colonial Boulevard along a busy four to six lane arterial to eastern reaches of Fort Myers and I-75. CR 884 resumes beyond Interstate 75 for the remainder of Colonial Boulevard to SR 82. The county road overtakes Lee Boulevard into Lehigh Acres, traveling across the unincorporated area onto Joel Boulevard east and north to its end at SR 80 near Alva.

  | Standing at 20 feet from base to flag pole tip, this statue is a replica of the actual flag raising that took place on the isle of Iwo Jima, February 19, 1945. Created in 1964, the Iwo Jima replica was originally part of The Rose Garden attraction in south Cape Coral2. It was moved by 1980 to near the corner of Del Prado Boulevard and Viscaya Parkway, and finally moved to its current location by 1998 at Four Mile Cove Ecological Preserve. 11/22/12 |
