1953 Map of Okeechobee 4 NE

About this map

Allapattah Flats dominates this mid-century landscape on the border of St Lucie Co and Martin Co. The terrain is characterized by a series of wetlands and sloughs, including Myrtle Slough and Parker Branch, reflecting the region's natural drainage before extensive modern development. Small interior settlements and landmarks like Bluefield, Boar Hammock, and Myer Hammock offer specific points of interest for local historians studying early twentieth-century Florida habitation. The Florida East Coast railroad cuts a straight line across the marshy ground, serving as a primary corridor for transportation and growth. Man-made interventions are visible through a series of Levee and Spoil Bank features, alongside several identified Flowing Well locations, indicating early efforts to manage the water table for land use.
