About this map

Lehigh Acres serves as the primary residential hub in this corner of Lee County, Florida, characterized by a dense suburban street grid that transitions abruptly into the undeveloped wetlands and conservation tracts to the south and west. The map documents the extensive suburban platting typical of this region, where long arterials like Lee Blvd and Co Rd 884 connect disparate neighborhoods. Near the northeastern edge, Lehigh Memorial Park and the Able Canal provide managed open space and drainage infrastructure essential to the local environment.

The southwestern portion of the sheet is dominated by the sprawling infrastructure of Southwest Florida International Airport, illustrating the critical role of aviation and transport in the regional economy. Major thoroughfares such as Daniels Pkwy and Immokalee Rd skirt the airport perimeter, bordering areas like Gateway Blvd and the residential enclaves along Griffin Dr. This map effectively captures the 21st-century balance between rapid suburban expansion and the preservation of vast wetland landscapes.
