1915 Map of Palatka

About this map

Palatka and its surrounding riverfront communities define this 1915 survey of the St Johns River valley. The map documents a critical period in Florida's industrial growth, where the convergence of the Georgia Southern and Florida, Atlantic Coast Line, and Florida East Coast railroads transformed the local economy. Beyond the urban grid of Palatka Heights, the landscape is dotted with rural schools like Bardin School and Seven Pines School, alongside industrial landmarks such as Hodges Mill and Sutherlands Still.
