1956 Map of Arsenicker Keys

About this map

Homestead Air Force Base dominates the northwestern corner of this coastal survey, where military infrastructure meets the low-lying wetlands of eastern Dade County. The map documents a highly engineered landscape defined by drainage and access, as seen in the parallel channels of the Military Canal, Mowry Canal, and Florida City Canal that cut through the muck towards Biscayne Bay. These waterways are flanked by agricultural corridors along Avocado Drive and Kings Highway, marking the edge of the region's productive farm country before it dissolves into the mangrove swamps of Turkey Point and Turtle Point.
