2012 Map of Baldwin

About this map

Whitehouse Naval Outlying Field and the sprawling extent of the Cecil Field Naval Air Sta dominate this part of the Florida landscape west of Jacksonville. The map illustrates a region transitioning from rural wooded areas to military and suburban expansion, anchored by small settlements like Otis, Mandeville, and Tulane. Several watercourses, including Brandy Br, McGirts Creek, and Yellow Water Cr, drain the low-lying terrain, creating a network of natural boundaries alongside major transportation corridors. Significant arterial routes such as Old Plank Rd and Dillon Rd bisect the area, providing a framework for local development. This 2012 survey captures the spatial relationship between these established military installations and the grid of residential streets, such as Lafayette St and Martin Luther King Jr Dr, that define the local community structure in the early 21st century.
