1947 Map of Blackwater Sound

USGS Topo · Published 1970

About this map

Key Largo and the complex waterways of the upper Florida Keys are captured here in a 1947 survey updated through 1969. The map details the delicate boundary of Everglades National Park where it meets the sprawling waters of Blackwater Sound and Barnes Sound. Residential development is visible along the eastern corridor of Key Largo, particularly around Anglers Park and Largo Sound, while the surrounding keys like Boggy Key and Shell Key remain largely wild.
