About this map

Orlando's southeastern reaches transition from modern suburban developments into an extensive network of wetlands and conservation lands in this 2021 survey. The landscape is defined by the massive Lake Hart and Lake Mary Jane, separated by a complex of named islands including North Roberts Island and Crosby Island. The presence of the Valencia College Lake Nona Campus highlights the recent educational and residential expansion into this once-rural corridor, where new road networks like Innovation Way and Storey Park Blvd now intersect the ancient hydrology of the region.

Conservation efforts are evident in the east, where the Hal Scott Regional Preserve And Park protects the banks of the Econlockhatchee River. This protected area stands in contrast to the dense new street grids like those near Story Time Dr, showing the rapid pace of development near the Wide Cypress Swamp. Between these points, the map documents a terrain still rich in water features like Buck Lake and Barton Lake, reflecting the delicate balance between Central Florida's growing infrastructure and its foundational wetlands.
