1918 Map of Mayport

USGS Topo · Published 1932

About this map

St Johns River dominates this coastal landscape, serving as the central artery for maritime activity before the era of intensive modern development. The map shows the vital Mayport Br of the Florida East Coast railroad connecting the inland with the coast at San Pablo Sta, supporting small communities like Pablo Beach and Atlantic Beach. Near the river's mouth, the historic Pilot Town Fort George PO and Mayport indicate the importance of river pilots and early naval infrastructure. The inland side is characterized by a complex network of marshes and islands, including Fort George Island and Talbot Island, where Mt Cornelia rises above the tidal creeks. Cultural details such as Manhattan Beach and several boathouse landings illustrate a transition from a river-and-rail economy toward early tourism and leisure along the Atlantic shoreline.
