Of The Gardens
John D. MacArthur, seen here with his dog Zeck in the
mid-1960s, was born poor, the son of a Scottish preacher
in rural Pennsylvania. After dropping out of high school,
he became a self-made billionaire. He was eccentric in
his personality and lifestyle and was quoted as saying,
“Scotsmen are supposed to be very tight … I have never
denied it. I inherited it.” MacArthur called himself “a
simple country boy” and lived modestly in a duplex
apartment at an old hotel he bought and remodeled,
the Colonnades Beach Hotel in Palm Beach Shores.
Despite his modesty, his influence in the development
of Palm Beach County is second only to Henry Flagler.
MacArthur’s dog was a Weimaraner named Zeckendorf.
He was called “Zeck” for short and was a gift to
MacArthur from New York businessman Bill Zeckendorf.
