About this map

St. Cloud serves as the northern anchor of this landscape, showing the suburban expansion and residential development characteristic of modern Osceola County. The map details a transition from the structured street grid of the city, including its Technical Education Center, to the vast wetlands and hydrological systems that dominate the southern reaches. Major water bodies like Lake Tohopekaliga and the smaller Lake Gentry are connected by a network of engineered waterways, including the Saint Cloud Canal and South Port Canal, reflecting decades of water management in the Florida interior.

To the southwest, the settlement of South Port sits near the marshes of Friars Cove and Drawdy Bay, while family-named features like Fanny Bass Pond and the Mount Peace Cemetery provide points of interest for local historians and genealogists. The presence of Gentry Airport and several named sloughs and ponds highlights the contrast between early 21st-century infrastructure and the persistent natural terrain of the lake region.
