1953 Map of St Cloud North

About this map

East Lake Tohopekaliga dominates this landscape on the northern edge of St Cloud, where the grid of the city meets the shoreline. The transition from town to wetlands is marked by intricate drainage features like Fennel Slough, Bass Slough, and Fish Lake. Cultural history is evident in the placement of the Barber Cem and Mt Carmel Cem, along with Lock Haven Ch situated north of the city. The map captures the encroachment of modern infrastructure, with Floridas Turnpike cutting through the western terrain near Partin Settlement Road. These mid-century surveys reveal how the natural basin of Boggy Creek Swamp and Bear Bay influenced the expansion of the St Cloud Corp Bdy, showing the intersection of Florida's hydrology and human development.
