1958 Map of Alva SE

About this map

Lehigh Acres expands across the northwestern quadrant of this map, reflecting a mid-century period of suburban planning in Lee County. The street grid is clearly delineated, contrasting with the vast wetlands to the south and east. These lowland areas are dominated by drainage patterns like Twelvemile Slough and Fussel Slough, which define the natural landscape. Further south, the Corkscrew Lookout Tower stands as a lonely sentinel near the junction of Lee, Hendry, and Collier counties. This region demonstrates the gradual encroachment of residential development into the Florida interior, where new roads and a Golf Course began to replace the natural flow of Carson Gully. The map illustrates the convergence of three county lines, serving as a boundary study for this transition between the expanding town and the undeveloped sloughs.
