1943 Map of Sugarloaf Key

USGS Topo · Published 1963

About this map

Sugarloaf Key and its surrounding archipelagos are captured here in the mid-1940s, a period of transition as the Overseas Highway system solidified the Florida Keys' connection to the mainland. The alignment of U. S. Highway No 1 cuts across the landscape, shown in parts as being under construction during the survey. This infrastructure investment transformed small outposts like Perky and Pirates Cove from remote maritime settlements into accessible waypoints for travelers.
