1951 Map of Grant

About this map

The Valkaria Naval Air Station anchors the coastal landscape of this 1951 survey, reflecting the military's footprint along the Indian River just after the mid-century. This region of Brevard County is defined by its maritime and rail connections, with the Florida East Coast railroad running parallel to the shore through the settlements of Malabar, Valkaria, and Grant. The intricate shoreline is marked by local landmarks like Rock Point and Shell Pit Pt, while the shallow waters of the river are dotted with numerous islands such as Grant Farm Island and Big Snag I. To the west, the terrain transitions into a more drainage-heavy environment characterized by Goat Creek and Trout Creek, where an extensive Levee system and several spoil banks indicate active land management and dredging efforts along the Intracoastal Waterway.
