1953 Map of Brighton

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

Brighton Indian Reservation dominates the southern landscape of this mid-century Florida survey, showing the intricate network of water management features that defined the region's development. Centered around the settlement of Brighton, the map documents a transition from natural wetlands to a structured landscape governed by the C-41A Canal and numerous irrigation projects. The presence of a Levee, multiple instances of a Spoil Bank, and several Flowing Wells illustrate the extensive engineering efforts undertaken by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and the Geological Survey to control the water table across the Highlands and Glades County line.
