About this map

North New River Canal cuts a diagonal course across the southwest corner of this landscape, representing a significant piece of the regional water management infrastructure in Broward County. This portion of the North New River Canal is part of the historic drainage system designed to manage water levels across the Florida Everglades. Outside of this major waterway, the area is characterized by an open, undeveloped expanse that highlights the scale of the state's conservation and water conservation areas during the early twenty-first century. The stark contrast between the engineered canal and the surrounding terrain illustrates the ongoing efforts to balance environmental preservation with the hydraulic requirements of South Florida's coastal development.
