1964 Map of Jacksonville Heights

About this map

U S Naval Air Station (Cecil Field) occupies much of the northwestern portion of this landscape, marking a significant military presence during this era of Florida's growth. The boundary between Duval Co and Clay Co bisects the terrain, where suburban expansion begins to meet the wooded drainages of the Ortega River and Black Creek. New residential developments like Enchanted Park and North Meadowbrook Terrace appear alongside established landmarks such as the Jacksonville Heights Ch and the Federal Hill Cem. Industrial activity is evident in several Sandpits scattered across the quadrangle, while the Seaboard Coast Line railroad provides a major transportation corridor. To the southeast, the terrain descends toward the water at Sugarhouse Cove on Doctors Lake, illustrating the transition from military airfield and piney woods to waterfront settlement.
