About this map

Key Largo's upper stretch appears here during the late 1940s, revealing a string of small settlements and navigational landmarks before the massive post-war development of the Florida Keys. Small communities like Newport and Rock Harbor are clustered along the main road, while St Margarets Ch and Getman Memorial Ch provide evidence of early social centers for residents. The western waters of Florida Bay and Buttonwood Sound are protected by the Everglades National Park boundary, emphasizing the region's conservation history.
