About this map

The town of Reddick and the surrounding Marion County landscape are defined by a mix of agriculture, institutional development, and heavy industry during the late 1960s. Extensive Quarries and various Quarry sites dot the terrain, signaling the importance of limestone or phosphate mining to the local economy. Educational centers are prominent across the quadrangle, ranging from the North Marion High Sch in the north to Fessenden High Sch further south.

Community life is centered around numerous country churches and cemeteries, such as Southern Home Ch, Debose Chapel, and the Union Cem. A large State Correctional Institution occupies a significant portion of the central landscape near Lowell, while the Ocala Speedway provides a distinct recreational landmark. The mapping includes revisions through the late 1980s, showing the suburban growth of Ocala Park and residential developments like Lawndale Drive.
