1963 Map of Arlington

About this map

St Johns River and its eastern banks define this landscape during a period of rapid suburban expansion in Jacksonville. The urban core gives way to established riverside communities like Floral Bluff and Arlington, while newer residential developments such as Sandalwood and Southside Estates push eastward into the Big Island Swamp. This 1981 revision highlights the growth of major institutional footprints, including the Jacksonville University campus on the river and the burgeoning University of North Florida to the southeast.
