1949 Map of Opalocka

USGS Topo · Published 1949

About this map

The U S Naval Air Station and its surrounding airfields dominate this post-war landscape, reflecting the military's significant footprint in South Florida during the late 1940s. The map illustrates a complex aviation network, including West Field, East Field, Master Field, and Municipal Field, all situated near the developing settlement of Opalocka. To the north, the U S Naval Air Gunnery Range extends into the marshy terrain of the Broward and Dade county line, where the land is primarily defined by water management features like the Miami Canal and various Levees.
