Nestled south of Sanford along the Lee / Harnett County line, Broadway
was formed in the late 1800's by early settlers coming to the area
to distill turpentine, due to the plentitude of pine trees. At that time
there was a post office that catered to Harnett and Moore County (some
of which is now Lee County). Later farming grew to become the predominant
industry of the area. To this day, farming still plays a large role.
Broadway has become a mecca for those who want the quiet, compassionate
ways of a small community. Yet, Broadway is experiencing growth of many
quality housing developments and small businesses to help make this town
an even better place to shop and do business.
We hope that this site provides you with helpful information about the town of Broadway and all it has to offer its visitors and future residents.
