1949 Map of Delmar Farms

USGS Topo · Published 1949

About this map

Delmar Farms is depicted here in a transitional period during the late 1940s, showcasing the extensive agricultural drainage and irrigation infrastructure that defined this part of Palm Beach County. The landscape is characterized by a dense grid of canals and a prominent levee system, reflecting the large-scale reclamation efforts of the era. Settlement is sparse, anchored by the small community of Dewitt, situated along the eastern edge of the survey area. Transport and boundary markers, such as Atlantic Avenue and the north-south Range Line, provide the primary orientation for the region. The map captures the specialized land use of the Florida Everglades' edge before the major post-war residential expansion reached this far inland, preserving a view of the area when it was dominated by agricultural enterprise and water management.
