He became involved in bicycle racing, and many activities related to the emerging American auto industry. In 1904, he and friend <a href="/wiki/James_A._Allison" title="James A. Allison">James A. Allison</a> bought an interest in the U.S. <a href="/wiki/Patent" title="Patent">patent</a> to manufacture <a href="/wiki/Acetylene" title="Acetylene">acetylene</a> <a href="/wiki/Headlight" class="mw-redirect" title="Headlight">headlights</a>, a precursor to electric models that became common about ten years later. Soon, his firm supplied nearly every headlamp used on automobiles in the United States as manufacturing plants were built all over the country to supply the demand. The headlight patent made him rich as an automotive <a href="/wiki/Auto_part" class="mw-redirect" title="Auto part">parts</a> supplier when Allison and he sold their company, Prest-O-Lite, to Union Carbide in 1913 for $9 million (equivalent to $268 million in 2022).<sup id="cite_ref-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-2"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p><p>Fisher operated in <a href="/wiki/Indianapolis,_Indiana" class="mw-redirect" title="Indianapolis, Indiana">Indianapolis</a> what is believed to be the first <a href="/wiki/Automobile_dealership" class="mw-redirect" title="Automobile dealership">automobile dealership</a> in the United States, and also worked at developing an automobile racetrack locally. After being injured in stunts himself, and following a safety debacle at the new <a href="/wiki/Indianapolis_Motor_Speedway" title="Indianapolis Motor Speedway">Indianapolis Motor Speedway</a>, of which he was a principal, he helped develop paved racetracks and public roadways. Improvements he implemented at the speedway led to its nickname, "The Brickyard." </p><p>In 1912, Fisher conceived and helped develop the <a href="/wiki/Lincoln_Highway" title="Lincoln Highway">Lincoln Highway</a>, the first road for the automobile across the entire United States. A convoy trip a few years later by the <a href="/wiki/U.S._Army" class="mw-redirect" title="U.S. Army">U.S. Army</a> along Fisher's Lincoln Highway was a major influence upon then-Lt. Col. <a href="/wiki/Dwight_D._Eisenhower" title="Dwight D. Eisenhower">Dwight D. Eisenhower</a> years later in championing the <a href="/wiki/Interstate_Highway_System" title="Interstate Highway System">Interstate Highway System</a> during his presidency in the 1950s. </p><p>Following on the success of his east-west Lincoln Highway, Fisher initiated efforts on the north-south <a href="/wiki/Dixie_Highway" title="Dixie Highway">Dixie Highway</a> in 1914, which led from Michigan to Miami. Under his leadership, the initial portion was completed within a single year, and he led an automobile caravan to Florida from Indiana. </p><p>At the south end of the Dixie Highway in Miami, Florida, Fisher saw another opportunity. Fisher, with the assistance of his partners John Graham McKay and Thomas Walkling, became involved in the real-estate development of a largely unpopulated barrier island near Miami. They invested in land and dredging, promoted deed restrictions, and provided much-needed working capital to the earlier Lummus and Collins family pioneers to develop <a href="/wiki/Miami_Beach" class="mw-redirect" title="Miami Beach">Miami Beach</a>. For example, Fisher funded completion on the first bridge to link Miami to Miami Beach. The new Collins Bridge crossed Biscayne Bay directly at the terminus of the Dixie Highway. Cars were charged a toll to cross. </p><p>Fisher is one of the best-known promoters of the Florida land boom of the 1920s, which inculcated racial deed restrictions into Florida culture for decades. Prior to the <a href="/wiki/1926_Miami_Hurricane" class="mw-redirect" title="1926 Miami Hurricane">hurricane in September 1926</a>, he was worth an estimated $50-100 million depending on the source. This unforeseen storm reduced Miami Beach to rubble. Fisher's financial endeavors never fully recovered. </p><p>His next major project, Montauk, was envisioned as the "Miami Beach of the North."

Completed in 1913, it was built on Cold Spring Road between the estates of his two friends and Indianapolis Motor Speedway partners, James A. Allison and Frank H. Wheeler. The house included portions of an earlier house on the site and featured a 60-foot-long living room with a 6-foot-wide fireplace where logs burned all day. The house had twelve bedrooms and a huge glass-enclosed sun porch. Fisher built a house for his mother on the southern part of the estate. The estate also included a five-car garage, an indoor swimming pool, a polo course, a stable, an indoor tennis court and gymnasium, a greenhouse, and extensive gardens. A newspaper article dated February 2, 1913, described the simple dignity of the house.

His investments in Miami Beach were not paying off, at least not until he again used his promotional skills, which had worked so well years earlier in Indiana. </p><p>Ever the innovative promoter, Fisher seemed tireless in his efforts to draw attention to Miami Beach, a story recounted by <a href="/wiki/Public_Broadcasting_Service" class="mw-redirect" title="Public Broadcasting Service">PBS</a>.

Billboards of bathing beauties enjoying white beaches and blue ocean waters appeared around the country. Fisher even purchased a huge, illuminated sign proclaiming "It's June in Miami" in <a href="/wiki/Times_Square" title="Times Square">Times Square</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-Reyes_14-5" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Reyes-14"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>14<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p><p>During the <a href="/wiki/Florida_land_boom_of_the_1920s" title="Florida land boom of the 1920s">Florida land boom of the 1920s</a>, real-estate sales took off as Americans discovered their automobiles and the paved Dixie Highway, which through no coincidence led to the foot of the Collins Bridge.<sup id="cite_ref-Reyes_14-6" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Reyes-14"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>14<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> Fewer than 1,000&#160;year-round residents lived in Miami Beach in 1920. In the next five years, the resident population of the Miami Beach area grew 440%. People from all over the country flocked to South Florida in hopes of getting rich buying and selling real estate.

He had bought another 200 acres (0.81&#160;km<sup>2</sup>) that now form <a href="/wiki/Fisher_Island,_Florida" title="Fisher Island, Florida">Fisher Island</a> from <a href="/wiki/Dana_A._Dorsey" title="Dana A.

Vanderbilt used the property, later expanded to 13 acres, to create an enclave even more luxurious and exclusive than many of Miami Beach's finest. </p><p>The Miami Yacht Club that Fisher built in 1924 was later converted into a private mansion that was extensively renovated in 2017; the property was on the market for $65 million in May 2018.<sup id="cite_ref-21" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-21"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>21<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p><p>By 1926, Fisher was worth an estimated $50-100&#160;million, depending on the source. He could have been financially secure for life. The Great Miami Hurricane of 1926, alcoholism, and the Great Depression of 1929 set him back. Always ready for a new idea, Fisher was known for moving from project to project. Success or failure had never stopped him from attempting something new. In her 1947 book, his ex-wife Jane Watts Fisher quoted him as replying, when she had hoped that he would slow down at some point, "I don't have time to take time." Instead, he redirected his promotional efforts to yet another new project far to the north. </p> <figure class="mw-halign-right" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Montauk_Manor.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/9/99/Montauk_Manor.jpg/300px-Montauk_Manor.jpg" decoding="async" width="300" height="177" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/9/99/Montauk_Manor.jpg/450px-Montauk_Manor.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/9/99/Montauk_Manor.jpg/600px-Montauk_Manor.jpg 2x" data-file-width="3135" data-file-height="1849" /></a><figcaption>Montauk Manor</figcaption></figure> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Montauk,_Long_Island"><span id="Montauk.2C_Long_Island"></span>Montauk, Long Island</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Carl_G._Fisher&amp;action=edit&amp;section=9" title="Edit section: Montauk, Long Island"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>In 1926, Fisher began working on a "Miami Beach of the North".
