1994 Map of Goulds

About this map

South Miami Heights and Leisure City anchor this 1994 survey of southern Florida, illustrating a landscape defined by an extensive grid of numbered streets and specialized agricultural and institutional sites. The northern reach is dominated by the Metrozoo and the Federal Bureau of Prisons Metropolitan Correctional Center, while the southern end includes the edge of the Homestead A F Base. Historically unique aviation features are scattered throughout, from the Lindbergh Landing Strip to numerous private fields like the Goldstein Landing Strip and Davis Landing Strip. These small airfields, alongside specialized landmarks like the Monkey Jungle and Fruit and Spice Park, reflect the region's mid-century evolution from a rural fruit-growing center to a suburbanized corridor. The map also traces the Dixie Highway and Floridas Turnpike as they pass through the settlements of Goulds, Princeton, and Naranja.
