About this map

Moore Haven sits as a critical junction for Florida water management and transit, anchored by the massive engineering of the Herbert Hoover Dyke. This 2015 survey illustrates a landscape defined by its waterways, where the Caloosahatchee Canal and Okeechobee Waterway converge near the town center. The town's grid extends towards Washington Park, while the Moore Haven Bridge provides a vital link over the canal system.

The surrounding territory is a complex network of drainage and irrigation, featuring the Rim-Canal, Ninemile Canal, and the Old Moore Haven Canal. In the southwest, the marshy expanse of Lake Hicpochee remains a prominent natural feature. Rural settlements such as Benbow and Whidden Corner are connected by a system of county roads and the Florida National Scenic Trail, which follows the curve of the levee, highlighting the intersection of industrial water control and public recreation in Glades County.
