USGS Topo · Published 1949About this map
Pompano Beach and the burgeoning northern reaches of Fort Lauderdale define this coastal landscape just after the war. The map documents a critical era of South Florida development, where established rail lines like the Florida East Coast intersect with the Intracoastal Waterway and the Atlantic Ocean shoreline. Inland, the grid of Oakland Park and the specialized finger islands of Nurmi Isles show the early engineering of the marshlands into residential waterfronts.
