1956 Map of Orlando West

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

The growing city of Orlando and its western suburbs are captured during a period of rapid mid-century expansion. This 1956 survey, with 1970 photorevisions, details the urbanization of Orange County as residential developments began to fill the spaces between the region's many lakes. Established communities like Eatonville and Lockhart sit alongside newer housing tracts in Pine Hills and Fairview Shores. The transportation network is anchored by the Seaboard Coast Line railroad and major arteries such as Colonial Drive and the Sunshine State Parkway.
