About this map

Water management and drainage infrastructure dominate this mid-century landscape along the Okeechobee Co St Lucie Co line. Extensive networks of an unnamed Levee and numerous Spoil Bank features indicate a period of intensive land reclamation and agricultural preparation within the Florida interior. These artificial structures bisect the natural flow of Gomez Creek and Cowbone Creek, illustrating the era's engineering efforts to control the local hydrology.
