1952 Map of Daytona Beach

About this map

Daytona Beach stands as a burgeoning hub of mid-century Florida tourism and aviation, anchored by the Halifax River and the Atlantic Ocean. The landscape transition from the residential streets of Holly Hill and Seabreeze to the specialized infrastructure of the Daytona Beach Regional Airport illustrates a city adapting to post-war mobility. Education and civic life are prominent through Bethune-Cookman College and Mainland High Sch, while the inclusion of the Daytona International Speedway in the 1977 purple revisions highlights the massive scale of sports development late in the century.
