1944 Map of Auburndale

About this map

Auburndale sits at the heart of this mid-century Florida landscape, defined by an intricate network of citrus groves and more than a dozen named lakes. The town serves as a busy junction for the Atlantic Coast Line and Seaboard Air Line railroads, which cut across a terrain dominated by water bodies like Ariana Lake and Lake Van. The presence of Phosphate Mines in the southwestern corner near Saddle Creek points to the region's industrial foundations beyond agriculture.
