2024 Map of Fort Lauderdale South

About this map

Fort Lauderdale serves as the focal point of this modern topographic study, showcasing a dense urban and aquatic network defined by its famous canals and waterways. The map illustrates the sophisticated drainage and transit infrastructure of southern Florida, from the New River and the North New River Canal to the expansive industrial footprint of Port Everglades. Residential developments such as Chula Vista Isles, Rio Vista Isles, and Melrose Park are interwoven with significant institutional landmarks, including the Broward County Judicial Complex and multiple campuses for Broward College. This area's transition from the coastal reaches of Dania Beach to the inland neighborhoods of Davie and Pembroke Pines is bridged by massive transportation hubs like the Fort Lauderdale/Hollywood International Airport. The persistence of early planning is visible in the alignment of W Broward Blvd and the historic Tarpon Bend, reflecting the city's growth along its original river arteries.
