2024 Map of Gainesville East

About this map

The Gainesville city limits and its eastern expansion define this contemporary landscape, where urban infrastructure meets the wetlands of Alachua County. The campus of the University of Florida dominates the southwestern quadrant, while the Gainesville Regional Airport and the surrounding industrial corridors shape the northeastern geography. The map reveals a transition from dense street grids to ecologically distinct areas like Gum Root Swamp, Potato Patch Bay, and the wide expanse of Hogtown Prairie. For those tracing local history or genealogy, several established burial grounds are documented, including Fairbanks Cem near the settlement of Fairbanks, as well as Evergreen Cem and Mount Pleasant Cem. The presence of the Alachua County Criminal Justice Center and various residential developments like Lincoln Estates and Kincaid Hills illustrate the modern civic and social footprint of the region.
