1927 Map of Matanzas

USGS Topo · Published 1927

About this map

Ft Matanzas stands as a sentinel at the northern edge of this coastal survey, overlooking the complex waters of the Matanzas Inlet. The landscape is defined by the narrow barrier islands and salt marshes typical of the Florida coast, where the Matanzas River and the newly developed Intracoastal Waterway provide critical north-south passage. The map documents the early infrastructure of the region, including State Hy No 140 running parallel to the shore and an Old Road threading through the wetlands further inland. Small coastal settlements and stopping points such as Summer Haven, Shell, and Hopper are interspersed among the tidal creeks like Pellicer Cr, reflecting a time before heavy residential development when the economy was tied closely to the sea and the emergent highway system.
