About this map

The Interbay Peninsula dominates this mid-century coastal survey, anchored by the massive footprint of Mac Dill Air Force Base and the industrial infrastructure of the Port Tampa Dock. Connected by the Gandy Bridge, the western shore shows the residential expansion of St Petersburg through neighborhoods like Shore Acres and Snell Isle. The maritime landscape is highly regulated, featuring a large Prohibited Area south of the air base alongside specialized zones such as a Quarantine Anchorage and a Temporary Explosives Anchorage.
