1948 Map of Riomar

About this map

Vero Beach and its barrier island communities are shown here during a period of mid-century coastal development, integrated with earlier surveys from the late 1940s. The landscape is defined by the thin strip of land separating the Atlantic Ocean from the Indian River, where the Intracoastal Waterway cuts through sheltered waters like Bethel Creek and McCullers Cove. The presence of the Vero Beach Tracking Annex (USAF) on the northern end of the island reflects the region's mid-century strategic importance for aerospace and defense monitoring.
