About this map

Key West anchors this modern topographic perspective of the lower Florida Keys, showing the dense urban grid alongside significant federal and conservation areas. The city's maritime and military identity is evident through landmarks like the Truman Annex, the Fleming Key Magazine, and the Naval Hospital. Deeply grounded in local history, the map identifies sensitive sites such as the African Slave Cem at Higgs Beach, the Key West Cem, and the Peary Court Burial Grounds.

Surrounding the developed island, the map details a complex seascape of channels and shoals, including the Main Ship Channel and Garrison Bight. Large-scale conservation is represented by the Great White Heron National Wildlife Refuge and the Florida Keys Wilderness, protecting the out-islands like Mule Key and Wisteria Island. The infrastructure of the modern era is marked by the Key West International Airport and the coastal expanse of Smathers Beach.
