1962 Map of Boca Raton

About this map

Boca Raton and Deerfield Beach show significant suburban expansion along the Florida coast in this early 1960s survey, updated with mid-1980s bathymetric and photorevised data. The Intracoastal Waterway serves as a central artery for the region, separating the mainland from the barrier beach developments of Hillsboro Beach and Ocean Vue. Two major rail lines, the Seaboard Coast Line and Florida East Coast, parallel the shoreline, while the Sunshine State Parkway and Federal Highway provide the backbone for automotive transit. Community life is anchored by local institutions like Mitchell Sch and St Gregory Ch. The map also highlights the area's aviation infrastructure with the Boca Raton Public Airport and Pompano Beach Airpark, alongside leisure landmarks such as the Royal Palm Yacht Club.
