1950 Map of Indrio

USGS Topo · Published 1950

About this map

The coastal environment of the Florida Atlantic shore is captured here just after World War II, showing a landscape defined by the intricate barrier island and lagoon system. Along the western shoreline of the Indian River, the settlement of Viking stands as a focal point of habitation between the citrus groves and the water. The map documents the natural hydrology of the area, including the winding passage of Prang Island Cr, which snakes through the mangrove and marsh fringes typical of this stretch of the coast. This 1950 edition reflect a period when the Florida East Coast Railway and U.S. Highway 1 dictated the pattern of growth, while the barrier island itself remained largely composed of narrow sandy reaches and dense tidal vegetation before the era of intensive beachfront development.
