About this map

Malabar Naval Air Station anchors the southern portion of this mid-century Florida landscape, showcasing its distinctive star-shaped runway configuration. The interior of the region is defined by a massive drainage and reclamation network, where numerous segments of levee and miles of spoil banks cut through the wetlands east of Lake Washington. These engineering efforts transformed the marshy terrain into a developing corridor of small communities and specialized sites.
