1947 Map of North Miami

USGS Topo · Published 1959

About this map

The U S Naval Air Station and MacArthur Airport define the post-war landscape of northern Miami-Dade County, where aviation and rapid suburban growth intersect. This 1947 survey captures a transitional moment as the Sunshine State Toll Road and Seaboard Air Line rail infrastructure began to stitch together new residential developments like Biscayne Gardens and Biscayne Park. To the east, the Intracoastal Waterway separates the mainland from barrier island communities including Golden Beach and Bal Harbour.
