1956 Map of Perrine

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

The Florida East Coast railway corridor serves as the backbone for development in this coastal stretch of Dade County, linking the settlements of Perrine, Peters, and Cutler Ridge. The landscape transitions from the urbanizing residential grids of Franjo and South Allapattah in the west to the dense mangrove shorelines along Biscayne Bay. Significant infrastructure is visible, including a sewage disposal site and several gaging stations managing the flow of Black Creek and the Goulds Canal. The 1970s revisions, highlighted in purple, reveal the rapid suburban expansion pressing toward the southern edge of the map at Homestead Air Force Base. Along the coast, landmarks like Chicken Key and Black Point mark the boundary where the reclaimed land meets the natural shoals and ledges of the bay.
