1949 Map of Fort Lauderdale South

About this map

The Seminole Indian Reservation and the burgeoning coastlines of South Florida define this late-1940s landscape. Industrial and maritime development is centered at Port Everglades, while the residential grid expands through Dania and Hollywood. The map reveals a transition from the structured street grids near the Florida East Coast railroad to the rural reaches of Davie, where the Davie Airport and early drainage structures like the New River Canal dominate.
