1949 Map of Bartow
USGS Topo · Published 1977About this map
Bartow serves as the focal point of this mid-century Florida landscape, where the town's grid expands near educational landmarks like the Summerlin Institute and Union Academy. The area is defined by a significant transition in land use, as traditional settlements like Gordonville and Connersville sit adjacent to extensive Strip Mine operations that carve through the terrain south of Lake Hancock. This industrial footprint follows the Seaboard Coast Line railroad, which provided the essential transport link for the region's phosphate and citrus economies.
