1978 Map of Milton North

About this map

Whiting Field Naval Reservation dominates the northeastern landscape of this Santa Rosa County map, with its North Field and South Field runways serving as major regional anchors. To the south, the city of Milton expands toward the Blackwater River, showing a mid-century development pattern defined by schools like King Middle Sch and local entertainment such as the Drive-in Theatre. The Government Railroad cuts a diagonal path through the terrain, connecting the naval base to the wider transportation network. Residential growth is evident along streets like Gaynell St and Stewart St, while rural pockets persist around Point Baker and numerous family cemeteries including Allen Cem and Mitchell Cem. The riverfront at Quinn Bayou and Marquis Basin highlights the importance of the waterway to the local geography.
