1956 Map of Arcadia SE

About this map

Prairie Creek meanders through the heart of this landscape, marking a winding path across the boundary where De Soto Co meets Charlotte Co. The terrain is defined by a complex network of seasonal wetlands and drainage systems typical of the Florida interior during the mid-twentieth century. Distinctive features like Hog Bay and Myrtle Slough indicate the low-lying, water-dependent nature of the local environment. Human activity is represented by more specialized infrastructure, including a Fish Hatchery and a small Landing Strip, suggesting a transition toward managed land use and aviation access in this rural corridor. Revisions from the 1980s illustrate the expansion of citrus groves and agricultural plots that began to square off the natural contours of the creeks.
