Miami Beach occupies the narrow, developed strip of land between the Atlantic Ocean and the sheltered waters of Biscayne Bay in this 2018 survey. The map highlights the intensive coastal grid of the barrier island, where thoroughfares like Collins Ave and Indian Creek Dr connect the distinct neighborhoods of Surfside and Atlantic Heights. The geography is defined by the intricate relationship between residential blocks and the water, seen in the finger-like canals of the Tatum Waterway and the winding course of Indian Creek. Along the eastern edge, the Ocean Terrace Public Beach remains the primary landmark of the shoreline. The survey illustrates the high density of this resort and residential corridor, showing the precise layout of streets from 75th St down through the lower beach reaches during the late 2010s.
