USGS Topo · Published 1980About this map
Peace River and the Seaboard Coast Line define the corridor of development in central Florida during the late 1970s. The landscape is a study in industrial transformation, dominated by extensive strip mining operations near Mulberry and Kingsford, where the earth has been reshaped for phosphate extraction. This intensive land use contrasts sharply with the vast natural wetlands and water bodies to the east, including the massive Lake Weohyakapka and the serpentine Kissimmee River.
