1974 Map of Immokalee 4 SW

About this map

Airplane Prairie stands out as a distinct clearing amid the dense, water-saturated landscape of the Florida Everglades during the mid-1970s. This orthophotomap, based on 1971 aerial photography, provides a rare visual of the intricate drainage patterns and cypress heads that define the region. The map highlights the linear footprint of human industry through the Old Railroad Grade, which cuts through the natural flow of the Deep Lake Strand and East Crossing Strand. These strands are essential corridors for water movement through the swamp, leading toward landmarks like Mud Lake and the interestingly named The Bamboos. The combination of photographic detail and topographic labeling offers a clear view of how transportation infrastructure was imposed upon this complex subtropical environment.
