About this map

Lake Lafayette and its connected water bodies, including Alford Arm and Piney Z Lake, dominate the central landscape of this Leon County survey. The eastern sprawl of Tallahassee is evident through dense residential street networks and major arterial routes like Apalachee Pky and Mahan Dr. Established settlements such as Lafayette, Perkins, and Saint Peter anchor the suburbs, while the north is defined by the historic corridor of Miccosukee Canopy Road.

South of the urban center, the land transitions into a patchwork of named ponds and smaller drainages like Shepherd Br. Genealogists and local historians will find the location of Soda Field Cem near Orange Ave E and the scattered rural landmarks of Gardner useful for tracing the area's development. The map meticulously documents the transition from city infrastructure to the wetland systems of the Florida panhandle.
