About this map

The Twentymile Bend settlement serves as a focal point in this portion of the Florida Everglades, where a complex network of agricultural and drainage infrastructure defines the landscape. The geography is dictated by the massive West Palm Beach Canal and the L-7 Canal, which form the primary water management arteries for the region. These engineered waterways are accompanied by secondary features like the Ocean Canal, illustrating the sophisticated irrigation and flood control systems vital to Palm Beach County's interior. A grid of local roads, including E Canal St S, supports the local economy and land use pattern in this specialized environment, offering researchers a detailed view of the area's twentieth-century hydrological and transport development.
