2015 Map of Belle Glade

About this map

Belle Glade and South Bay serve as the primary anchors of this inland landscape, where the agricultural geometry of Palm Beach County meets the southern rim of Lake Okeechobee. The region's history of water management is visible through the major arterial waterways of the Hillsboro Canal and the North New River Canal, which define the movement of water and commerce through the Everglades. Smaller settlements like Runyon and Dahlberg punctuate the grid, while the Belle Glade Camp and Belle Glade State Municipal Airport reflect the community's local infrastructure. Along the marshy edge of Pelican Bay, the Florida National Scenic Trail winds past Torry Island, crossing the Chosen Bridge. This layout illustrates a highly engineered environment where the road network, including Hooker Hwy and Pioneer Park Rd, follows the rigid lines of the Public Land Survey System.
