1949 Map of Orsino

USGS Topo · Published 1960

About this map

Merritt Island is defined by an intricate network of marshes, lagoons, and narrow waterways just prior to the mid-century transformation of this coastline. The small community of Orsino sits at the heart of this landscape, flanked by the broad Indian River to the west and the meandering Banana Creek to the east. The map captures a largely undeveloped era where local life centered on landings and fish camps, such as Hubs Landing and the descriptive Banana Creek Fish Camp Humpback Bridge.
