About this map

The St Johns River flows through an expansive wetland system in the early 1950s, defining the boundary and character of this portion of Florida. Extensive hydrologic features like St Johns Marsh and Jane Green Swamp dominate the landscape, punctuated by notable water bodies such as Lake Hellen Blazes, Sawgrass Lake, and Little Sawgrass Lake. The presence of numerous Spoil Banks and a Levee indicate early water management and drainage efforts undertaken by the U.S. Corps of Engineers. Historical landmarks including North Indian Field, Middle Indian Field, and South Indian Field are marked along the marsh edges, offering significant points of interest for local historians. Linear traces of former industry are visible through the Old Railroad Grade, which cuts across the marshy terrain between Jane Green Creek and the river.
