About this map

Biscayne Bay defines the eastern edge of this coastal landscape, where the saltwater environment of Biscayne National Park meets the suburban expansion of Miami-Dade County in the mid-1990s. The inland area is a grid of residential developments and citrus groves, anchored by settlements like Perrine, Peters, and Cutler Ridge. An extensive network of drainage infrastructure, including Canal No C-100 and the Black Creek Canal No C-1w, reflects the managed hydrology required for coastal development.

Along the shoreline, the Deering Estate County Park preserves a rare section of the original hammock, while further south, the Mangrove Preserve Miami-Dade County Park and Black Point mark the transition to the aquatic preserve. Local life is documented through numerous community landmarks, such as R R Moton Sch, Christ the King Ch, and the extensive Palmetto Golf Course. Transportation corridors like Old Cutler Road and the Homestead Extension Florida'S Turnpike provide the framework for this era of South Florida growth.
