1952 Map of Okeechobee

About this map

Okeechobee serves as the focal point of this mid-century survey, situated at the northern edge of the massive Lake Okeechobee basin. The town's grid is well-defined around Flagler Park, with the Seaboard Coast Line railroad cutting through the landscape to the settlement of Sherman. The relationship between the land and water is clearly illustrated by the extensive Levee system that borders the lake, protecting the town and its infrastructure, including a prominent Waterworks and Hospital.
