About this map

The Everglades dominate this landscape in western Broward County, where the sprawling sawgrass and water of the conservation area are interrupted only by essential infrastructure. The map depicts a critical section of the central wetland ecosystem, characterized by the intersection of major transportation and water management routes. The east-west corridor of Interstate 75 and Highway 84 cuts across the lower half of the quadrangle, providing a primary link across the peninsula.

North of the highway, the Government Rd corridor runs through the marshlands, passing near Lone Palm Head. The presence of the C-60 and L-28 canals highlights the region's managed hydrology, where these artificial waterways define the movement of water through the protected environment. This survey captures the delicate balance between the preservation of the native wetland and the modern transit requirements of Southern Florida.
