1984 Map of Florence

About this map

Florence sits at the confluence of the Siuslaw River and the Pacific, serving as a hub of coastal activity in the mid-1980s. The landscape is defined by the significant presence of water and wetlands, from the winding channels of North Slough and South Slough to the expansive Woahink Lake and Siltcoos Lake further south. The Southern Pacific railroad follows the river's path, connecting small river settlements like Cushman and Acme.
