1950 Map of Arlington

About this map

St Johns River and the winding Arlington River define the western reaches of this 1950 survey, showcasing a landscape in transition from rural riverfront to post-war suburban development. Inland, the growth of residential clusters like Oakwood Villa and Southside Estates contrasts with the dense networks of Big Island Swamp and Cedar Swamp to the east. The map records several legacy landmarks, including the prehistoric Indian Mound near Newcastle Creek and the Flagler Lookout Tower along Beach Boulevard, which was still under construction at the time of the survey.
