1959 Map of Gum Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

The expansive wetlands of the Green Swamp dominate this mid-century survey of Polk County, where the transition from dense hydric landscapes to rising citrus-growing terrain is clearly mapped. The northern portion of the sheet is defined by the Pipeline cutting through the muck, while the southern edge shows the encroaching development of Haines City. Scattered settlements like Holiday Manor and the presence of the Radio Towers (WGTO) indicate the region's mid-century communication and residential expansion.
