About this map

Tarpon Springs and New Port Richey serve as the primary anchors for this mid-century coastal survey, reflecting a landscape defined by its intricate river systems and expanding rail infrastructure. The Anclote River and Pithlachascotee River wind through the terrain, featuring landmarks like Tokel Bend and Horseshoe Bend, while the expansive waters of Lake Tarpon dominate the southern portion of the sheet. The region's development during the early 1940s is traced through the parallel routes of the Atlantic Coast Line Railroad and the Seaboard Air Line Railroad, which facilitated the movement of goods and people between these growing Florida communities.
