1954 Map of Tallahassee

About this map

Tallahassee stands as the inland anchor for this mid-century survey of the Florida Panhandle and southern Georgia, situated where the Ochlockonee River and Lake Jackson mark the transition toward the gulf coast. The region’s hydrography is dominated by the massive Lake Seminole at the confluence of the Chattahoochee River and Flint River, a critical junction for the riverine economy of Chattahoochee and Sneads. Along the coast, Panama City and Springfield overlook the intricate bays of St Andrew Bay, while the Tyndall Air Force Base occupies the peninsula to the south.
