North Miami Beach and its surrounding communities are defined by a sophisticated network of waterways and mid-century urban planning as they appeared in 2021. The landscape is dominated by the Intracoastal Waterway and the Oleta River, where Oleta River State Park preserves a significant pocket of natural terrain amidst the dense residential corridors of Ojus and Aventura. This survey illustrates the intricate relationship between drainage and development, with the Snake Creek Canal and Biscayne Canal cutting through neighborhoods like Ives Estates and Miami Gardens. For local historians and genealogists, the map identifies several major regional landmarks, including Dade Memorial Park, Greater Miami Jewish Cem, and Southern Memorial Park. Educational and civic anchors such as Barry University, the Florida International University Biscayne Bay Campus, and the North Dade Justice Center are precisely located alongside the historic route of the Fec RR.
