1948 Map of Jupiter

About this map

Jupiter Inlet serves as the focal point for this coastal survey, where the North Fork Loxahatchee River and Southwest Fork Loxahatchee River converge before meeting the sea. The landscape reflects a mid-century Florida in transition, showing the established tracks of the Florida East Coast railway alongside the expanding residential footprints of Jupiter and Tequesta. Notable maritime and civil infrastructure includes the Jupiter Inlet U S Coast Guard Station and the Radio Sta (WMR), while the Intracoastal Waterway cuts a protected path behind Jupiter Island. To the north, the preserved wilderness of Jonathan Dickinson State Park contrasts with the developing beachfronts of Jupiter Inlet Beach Colony and Juno Beach. Local history is anchored by the Jupiter Cem and Jupiter Sch, marking the community's mid-20th-century center.
