The Intracoastal Waterway and the Gulf coastline define the layout of Sarasota County in this mid-1970s record, capturing a period of significant residential expansion. Development is concentrated along the barrier islands of Casey Key and Lemon Key, while inland, the grid of Venice and its surrounding suburbs like Venice Gardens and South Venice fills the coastal plain. The Seaboard Coast Line railroad runs parallel to U S Highway 41, serving as a backbone for the region's transport network before the full modern density of the Suncoast was established.
