About this map

Lake Helen and the community of Cassadaga anchor this Volusia County landscape, defined by a dense network of water bodies and mid-century residential expansion. The region's history is preserved in its several burial grounds, including the Prevatt Settlement Cem and the Lake Helen Cassadaga Cem, which sit near the northern lakes. The terrain is marked by numerous basins like Lake Macy, Lake Colby, and the sprawling Three Island Lakes.

Evidence of the area's older transportation and agricultural patterns persists through features like the Osceola Tram Rd in the southeast and the M-Q Ranch. Further south, the map details the suburban growth of Deltona Memorial Gardens and Osteen Memorial Gardens, illustrating the transition from a landscape of citrus groves and timber tracts to a modern residential corridor between the Atlantic coast and Central Florida.
