1972 Map of South Of Coopertown

USGS Topo · Published 1976

About this map

The Blue Shanty Canal defines the western edge of this orthophotomap, cutting a straight line through the wetlands and sawgrass of the Florida Everglades. Captured in the early 1970s, the imagery reveals the delicate texture of the landscape, where tree islands stand out against the expanse of water and grass. Access through this terrain is limited to specialized transport, evidenced by the presence of an Airboat Trail winding through the marshes. In the southeastern corner, the transition toward development is visible along Howard Drive, where a regular grid of land plots begins to encroach upon the natural environment. A solitary Radio Tower serves as a prominent landmark in this emerging interface between the wild Everglades and the expanding outskirts of Dade County.
