1958 Map of Fort Myers SE

About this map

Fort Myers expanded southward during the late 1950s, a period of transition visible in the residential development of Page Park and Fort Myers Villas. The landscape is defined by the critical infrastructure of the era, notably the Page Airport and the north-south corridor of the Atlantic Coast Line railroad. This survey highlights the local dependence on groundwater, with numerous Flowing Wells and individual Flowing Wells scattered across the low-lying terrain. Community markers like the Jr High Sch, a Drive-in Theater, and the County Home provide concrete evidence of the mid-century social fabric. The presence of Radio Towers (WMYR) and an additional Radio Tower underscores the region's growing communication network as suburban footprints began to encroach upon the surrounding wetlands.
