1944 Map of Fort Barrancas

USGS Topo · Published 1944

About this map

Fort Barrancas and the surrounding coastal defenses dominate the entrance to Pensacola Bay in this mid-century military survey. The landscape is defined by its strategic naval and maritime infrastructure, including the Naval Air Sta, multiple battery locations, and an intricate network of navigation aids like the Pensacola Light House. The map captures the specialized environment of the Reservation Boundary, where military installations such as Fort Pickens on Santa Rosa Island and the now-isolated Fort Mcree guarded the narrow channel.
