1950 Map of Hialeah
USGS Topo · Published 1950About this map
Hialeah Park and the sprawling aviation infrastructure of Miami International Airport dominate this mid-century landscape in Miami-Dade County. The map captures a period of intense post-war development, where residential grids for Hialeah and Miami Springs are rapidly expanding alongside established drainage projects like the Miami Canal and Tamiami Canal. This era shows the convergence of tourism and local industry, with the West Flagler Kennel Club and Miami Springs Golf Course situated near critical military and logistical hubs, including the US Naval Air Station and the US Army Radio Station. For genealogists, the map is particularly valuable for its density of burial grounds in the southern sections, documenting Mt Nebo Cem, Flagler Memorial Park Cem, and Graceland Memorial Park during a time of significant population growth.
