1949 Map of Eau Gallie

About this map

Indian River and the Intracoastal Waterway dominate this coastal landscape, capturing the Brevard County shoreline during its mid-century transition. The settlement of Eau Gallie sits at the confluence of the Eau Gallie River and the lagoon, while West Eau Gallie and Aurora show the early footprints of inland expansion. This survey reflects a time when the region's character was defined by its relationship with the water, from the marshes of Lake Washington to the protected Banana River Aquatic Preserve.
