1956 Map of Grossman Hammock

About this map

Everglades National Park meets the expanding agricultural and residential frontier of Dade County in this mid-century survey. The western half of the map is defined by the unique hydrology of the Everglades, featuring the seasonal waters of Lake Chekika and a nearby Spring. These natural features are anchored by Grossman Hammock, a distinctive tree island rising from the surrounding marsh. Moving east, the landscape transitions into a rigid grid of citrus groves and residential expansion, with family-named corridors such as Bauer Drive and Silver Palm Drive marking the terrain.
