About this map

Everglades National Park and the central stretch of the Upper Keys define this maritime landscape in the mid-2010s. The map illustrates a dense residential and commercial corridor concentrated along the island's spine, particularly in Key Largo Park, Newport, and Rock Harbor. The intricate shoreline is characterized by a series of protected sounds and basins, including Tarpon Basin, Buttonwood Sound, and Largo Sound, all connected via the Intracostal Waterway.

Neighborhood detail is exceptionally high, showing the expansion of residential streets such as Mahogany Dr and Coral Dr toward the Atlantic coast. Notable natural features and hazards include White Bank Dry Rocks and Triangles in the Hawk Channel, alongside smaller keys like Rodriguez Key and Dove Key. This survey documents the modern settlement pattern of the Keys, balancing heavy coastal development with the preserved wilderness of the national park to the west.
