About this map

Boca Chica Airport dominates the central landscape of this 1943 survey, reflecting the strategic military importance of the Florida Keys during the war years. The area is a complex network of islands and waterways, where the Boca Chica Key and Big Coppitt Key are connected by a road under construction, a precursor to the modern Overseas Highway. This infrastructure development is visible alongside established recreation spots like the Golf Course on Stock Island and the Sugar Loaf Club.
