About this map

The St Johns River serves as the central artery for this mid-century portrait of Jacksonville, where the urban core and its historic street grids meet the expansive waterfront. The map captures the city's complex transit infrastructure, anchored by Union Station and the tracks of the SCL RR and Fec RY, while multiple crossings like the Fuller Warren Bridge and Mathews Bridge connect the downtown to residential neighborhoods like San Marco and South Jacksonville.

Neighborhood character is remarkably detailed, from the industrial corridors near Grand Crossing and West Jacksonville to the riverside aesthetics of Riverside, Avondale, and Ortega. For genealogists and local historians, the sheet preserves the locations of essential civic landmarks including Evergreen Cemetery, St Lukes Hospital, and the Home for the Aged. Numerous local schools, such as Reynolds Lane Sch and Northwestern High Sch, underscore the post-war growth of established districts like Magnolia Gardens and Biltmore.
