1949 Map of Putnam Hall

USGS Topo · Published 1953

About this map

Putnam Hall and Florahome serve as primary rail stops in this post-war survey of the North Florida lake country. The landscape is defined by an intricate mosaic of freshwater lakes and expansive prairies, such as Putnam Prairie and Goodson Prairie, where the water table and terrain suggest a seasonal rhythm of wet and dry land. Two major rail corridors, the Southern and the Atlantic Coast Line, bisect the region, connecting small trackside communities like Grandin and Interlachen to the broader agricultural and timber markets of the late 1940s. The dense concentration of named water bodies, including Halfmoon Lake, Adaho Lake, and the uniquely named Trotting Pond, highlights a territory where life and transport were governed by the karst topography typical of the Florida peninsula's interior.
