1958 Map of Frederiksted

About this map

Frederiksted serves as the focal point of this coastal survey, where the harbor and Fort Frederick Light meet the western shore of St. Croix. The landscape transitions from the urban grid near the Hospital and St Patricks Sch to a vast network of estates and settlements further inland. The naming conventions of the day are on full display, with many tracts bearing evocative names like Betty's Hope, Wheel of Fortune, and Envy, reflecting the colonial-era plantation system's lasting imprint on the local geography. Transportation and connectivity are defined by the Mahogany Road and Centerline Road, while the southern end of the island is anchored by the Alexander Hamilton Airport. Topographic details reveal a diverse terrain, from the heights of Mt Eagle and Blue Mtn in the north to the Saltpond and low-lying coastal features like Sandy Point in the southwest.
