1956 Map of Glades

USGS Topo · Published 1957

About this map

Everglades National Park dominates this mid-century survey, illustrating the complex intersection of subtropical wetlands and the expanding transportation infrastructure of South Florida. The transition from terrestrial glades to coastal waters is clearly defined by a series of points and keys including Narrow Point, Flat Point, and Middle Key. These features separate the interior marshlands from the expansive waters of Manatee Bay and Barnes Sound.
