1949 Map of Pompano Beach

About this map

The Florida East Coast railway serves as the spine of this mid-century Broward County landscape, connecting the growing citrus and agricultural hub of Pompano Beach with the burgeoning northern reaches of Fort Lauderdale. Before the massive post-war housing booms fully transformed the coastline, the Intracoastal Waterway carved a distinct path between the mainland and the barrier islands, where Lauderdale-by-the-Sea and Fort Lauderdale Beach began to take shape.
