2015 Map of East of Lone Palm Head

About this map

Miami Canal and Mud Canal dominate this landscape in eastern Broward County, illustrating the massive hydrological engineering required to manage the Florida Everglades. These parallel waterways cut a straight diagonal path through the terrain, serving as primary conduits for water management and drainage. This 2015 survey reflects a region defined by its reliance on these artificial arteries, which were critical for both flood control and the reclamation of land. While the surrounding area appears largely undeveloped in this specific quadrant, the presence of these massive canals highlights the industrial scale of South Florida's water infrastructure as it stood in the early 21st century.
