About this map

St Johns Marsh dominates this mid-century landscape where the borderlands of Indian River, St. Lucie, and Okeechobee counties meet. The environment is defined by extensive water management and reclamation efforts, evident in the labyrinth of Levee systems and numerous Spoil Bank features that segment the terrain. Small natural landmarks like Sick Island and drainage features like Gum Slough contrast with the engineered agricultural and transit developments of the era.
