About this map

Tamiami Airport and the surrounding Everglades transition lands define this late-1940s landscape on the western fringe of South Miami. The area is characterized by a developing grid of major roads such as Bird Drive, Coral Way, and Krome Avenue, which cut through large tracts of undeveloped land and wetlands. Significant institutional and military sites are established here, including the Dade County Home and Hospital and the sprawling U S Naval Air Station near the settlement of Richmond.
