Most of it is in the city of Riviera Beach, but the town of Palm Beach Shores occupies its southern tip. Its latitude of is 26.784 N and its longitude is -80.037 W. The easternmost point of Florida is located there in Palm Beach Shores. Singer Island is actually a peninsula and not an island.

Named after Palm Beach developer Paris Singer, a son of Isaac Singer, the Singer Sewing Machine magnate, Singer Island has parks, marinas, hiking and bike paths, as well as 4.7 miles (7.6 km) of sparkling white sand beaches that has been considered one of the top five beaches in Palm Beach County.

It is said that Singer Island was originally purchased by Paris Singer as a gift for his mistress, who reportedly did not like it. Today it is a picturesque, upscale and pristine living place for thousands of condo owners. The tallest of these is the 42-story "Tiara", which was severely damaged by several hurricanes since 2004 and was still closed for repairs three years later. Residents moved back into the building in 2008.
Singer Island is home to professional golfer Michelle McGann, a longtime Singer Island resident. Singer Island was also home to rocker and E Street Band member Clarence Clemons.

Era la macchina da cucire delle nonne, quella con il grosso volano azionato a mano o con la pedivella.
Aveva la laccatura nera e le scritte serigrafate in oro.
Tutti i componenti: aghi, bobine, spolete, e quant’altro, erano, ovviamente, rigorosamente analogici ed artigianali.
Ci si facevano vestiti, tovaglie, lenzuola ecc..
Si rammendavano i calzini, le maniche dei maglioni (specie sui gomiti), ma non solo, all’occorrenza si tesseva anche tutto il corredo perché questo era importantissimo, unico, esclusivo e pertanto necessitava di una cura speciale nella realizzazione….
