2015 Map of Venice

About this map

Venice and its surrounding coastal communities are defined by a complex network of residential developments and marine infrastructure along the Gulf of Mexico. The landscape is bisected by the Intracoastal Waterway, which separates the mainland from barrier features like Casey Key and Manasota Key. This 2015 survey illustrates the dense suburban expansion of South Venice and Venice East, organized around arterial routes like the Tamiami Trl S. Significant civil aviation and maritime transit infrastructure are prominent, including the Venice Municipal Airport and the Manasota Bridge crossing into Lemon Bay. Smaller historical settlement markers like Eagle Point and Nokomis persist amidst newer neighborhoods, while water bodies such as Alligator Creek and Hatchett Creek dictate the drainage and layout of the contemporary Gulf Coast environment.
