1953 Map of Intercession City

USGS Topo · Published 1965

About this map

Intercession City stands as the primary settlement in this low-lying landscape where the borders of Orange, Osceola, and Polk counties meet. The community is situated along the Atlantic Coast Line railroad, south of the extensive Reedy Creek Swamp. This mid-century survey reveals a terrain defined by complex water systems and island-like rises in the wetlands, including Smokehouse Island and Orange Grove Island. The presence of an Old Railroad Grade north of Reedy Creek suggests a changing transport network as the region transitioned from its early logging or agricultural roots. Local landmarks such as the Oak Hill Ch and elevated points like Bunker Hill provide essential reference points for researchers studying the historical geography of this section of Central Florida before more modern developments altered the character of these extensive wetlands.
