About this map

Homestead Air Force Base dominates the northwestern corner of this mid-1950s survey, marking a period of intense military activity along the Biscayne Bay shoreline. The landscape is defined by a series of drainage projects, including the Mowry Canal, North Canal, and Florida City Canal, which cut through the coastal wetlands to manage water flow toward the sea. These engineering efforts supported the area's agricultural expansion, evidenced by Avocado Drive and Kings Highway bordering the base.
