1966 Map of Leesburg West

USGS Topo · Published 1988

About this map

The Seaboard Coast Line railroad and the Sunshine State Parkway corridor define the landscape of this Lake County region, where the burgeoning growth of Leesburg meets a complex network of freshwater basins. To the west, the sprawling Lake Deaton and Evans Prairie transition toward the Sumter Co line, while the northern reaches include Fruitland Park and the protected shoreline of Lake Griffin State Park. The map documents a period of educational and infrastructure development, featuring several local institutions such as Carver Heights High Sch and Johnson Jr College. Industrial activity is scattered throughout the terrain in the form of multiple claypits and a sandpit, signaling the area's resource extraction history alongside its residential expansion. Notable local landmarks like Bugg Spring and Flying Baron Airport provide specific points of interest for genealogists and local historians tracing the evolution of these central Florida communities.
