About this map

Lindgren Acres and the sprawling residential developments of Southwest Miami-Dade define this modern topographic landscape. This 2012 survey reveals a highly engineered environment where water management is central to urban planning, evidenced by the intricate network of the Snapper Creek Canal, Black Cr Canal Number C-1, and Cutler Drain Canal Number C-100. These waterways weave through neighborhoods surrounding numerous named man-made water bodies such as Kendale Lake and San Sebastian Lake.

Institutional and commercial hubs serve as major landmarks, including the Kendall-Tamiami Executive Airport and educational centers like the Barry University South Campus and PO Briarcliffe College. For genealogists and local historians, several significant interment sites are documented, including Woodlawn Park Cem South and Dade South Memorial Park, providing a clear record of the area's community infrastructure in the early 21st century.
