1971 Map of Upper Matecumbe Key

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

Islamorada serves as the primary hub of development on Upper Matecumbe Key, where a cluster of buildings and a Cem reflect the mid-century growth of this Florida Keys community. The landscape is defined by the shallow waters of Florida Bay to the north and the Hawk Channel to the south, with the Intracoastal Waterway cutting through the basin. This 1971 orthophotomap provides a clear view of the keys before extensive modern redevelopment, preserving the alignment of the Overseas Highway across the Teatable Key Fill. To the west, the protected reaches of Everglades National Park encompass numerous small landforms such as Panhandle Key and Gopher Keys, while the isolated Lignumvitae Key and the tiny Indian Key stand apart from the main populated chain.
