About this map

Morrison Field Air Base dominates the central landscape of this post-war Florida survey, reflecting the significant military presence that shaped the region's mid-century development. The burgeoning urban centers of West Palm Beach and Palm Beach are shown in high detail, separated by the vital waters of Lake Worth and connected by the Flagler Memorial Bridge, Royal Palm Bridge, and Southern Blvd Bridge. This era captures a transition from agricultural drainage to residential expansion, as seen in the network of canals like the West Palm Beach Canal and Lake Clarke.
