1949 Map of Riverdale

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

The St Johns River dominates this mid-century landscape, acting as a boundary between St. Johns, Clay, and Putnam counties. Along its eastern banks, the small settlement of Riverdale sits near a local County Park, while further south, Federal Point and Bridgeport occupy the fertile grounds where the river widens. The interior is defined by a network of drainage systems including Deep Creek, Tocoi Creek, and Paines Branch, which cut through the low-lying terrain to reach the main channel. On the western shore, the Seaboard Coast Line railroad runs parallel to the water, connecting points like West Tocoi and Brewers Landing. These landings and points, such as Racy Point and Palmetto Bluff, reflect a river-based economy and transportation system that persisted into the post-war era, even as 1970s revisions began to note modern developments like the Trailer Park near Clay Landing.
