About this map

Orlando International Airport dominates the southern half of this suburban landscape, showcasing the massive infrastructure of the modern transportation hub. North of the airport, the terrain is defined by a dense network of residential streets and a series of prominent water bodies including Lake Conway, Lake Warren, and Lake Nona. Small established communities and incorporated cities like Belle Isle, Edgewood, and Conway are tightly integrated into the lakefronts, while the historic area of Pine Castle and the settlement of Taft sit along the western edge.

Local history and genealogy are anchored by specific landmarks such as the Saint Mary of the Angels Cem and the Pershing Avenue Christian Church Memorial Garden. The map illustrates a complex drainage system through areas like Boggy Creek Swamp and Bull Slough, contrasting the natural wetland hydrology of Central Florida with the intensive development of the Orlando metropolitan corridor during the early 2020s.
