About this map

Key West serves as the focal point of this coastal study, revealing the dense street grid and nautical infrastructure of the island city at the start of the 2010s. The map captures the specialized geography of the Lower Keys, from the residential blocks along White St and Flagler Ave to the industrial and military presence at Trumbo Point and Tank Island. The surrounding waters are a complex network of navigation, including the Main Ship Channel, Northwest Channel, and several bights that define the island's perimeter.

Local history and community landmarks are prominently featured, such as the Southern Keys Cem and athletic facilities like the George Mira Football Field. Aviation and maritime history converge at the Key West International Airport and the West Seaplane Base, while the presence of the White Street Pier and Smathers Beach highlights the island's recreational coastline. Natural and man-made features like Fleming Key and Wisteria Island show the relationship between the built environment and the shallow waters of the Gulf of Mexico.
