About this map

The St Johns River defines the western edge of this suburban landscape, where the Mathews Bridge connects the growing eastside neighborhoods to central Jacksonville. Residential developments like Eggleston Heights, Oakwood Villa, and Holiday Hill fill the spaces between tidal waterways such as Arlington River and Pottsburg Creek. Educational institutions anchor the area, from the riverfront campus of Jacksonville University to the University of North Florida tucked near Sawmill Slough.

Evidence of the region's industrial past appears in several Former Mines located near Southside Estates and Windy Hill Park. Aviation history is present at the Craig Municipal Airport, while numerous family and community sites like Sammis Cem, Cosmo Cem, and the Tree of Life Synagogue offer valuable touchstones for genealogists. The map captures a moment when mid-century neighborhoods were becoming fully integrated into the expanding metropolitan fabric of Duval County.
