1949 Map of Port Everglades

About this map

Port Everglades and its industrial Turning Basin anchor this late-1940s survey of the Broward County coastline, reflecting a period of post-war maritime expansion. The intricate network of the Intracoastal Waterway and various man-made channels like the Dania Cut-Off Canal and Dania Town Canal illustrate the engineering required to develop these Florida coastal communities. Residential development is visible in the finger islands of Nurmi Isles and along the strips of Fort Lauderdale Beach and Hollywood Beach.
