1970 Map of Big Mound North

USGS Topo · Published 1993

About this map

Corbett State Wildlife Management Area dominates this orthophotomosaic, showing the intricate landscape of southern Florida's interior wetlands and prairies as they appeared in 1970. The transition from managed conservation land to agricultural and industrial development is clearly visible across the Martin Co Palm Beach Co line. In the northern reaches, a series of rectangular fields and a Pump station indicate early drainage and cultivation efforts adjacent to the marshy terrain. Infrastructure supporting the region's growth follows the Seaboard Coast Line railroad, which cuts diagonally through the landscape. Cultural and historical landmarks like Big Mound and Indian Mound provide important touchpoints for the area's ancient history, while a modern Substation and Water Tank mark the encroaching utilities of the late twentieth century.
