The Miami Canal and Bolles Canal intersect in this corner of the Everglades, defining the agricultural geometry of Palm Beach County. The landscape is dominated by a vast grid of drainage and irrigation infrastructure, a hallmark of the region's mid-20th-century transformation into a major sugar and winter vegetable production hub. Transportation follows these waterways, with Miami Canal Rd and Bolles Canal Rd tracing the embankments to serve the industrial farms. Near the eastern edge, the Okeelanta Airport stands as a focal point for the specialized aviation needs of large-scale agriculture. This survey captures the highly engineered nature of the South Florida interior, where water management systems dictate the placement of every road and boundary.
