1957 Map of Venus

USGS Topo · Published 1958

About this map

Venus serves as the central focal point of this 1950s survey, situated along the north-south corridor of the Atlantic Coast Line railroad. The landscape is defined by the transition between the sandy ridges of south-central Florida and the expansive marshlands that stretch toward the south. The drainage patterns are dominated by Rattlesnake Branch, which winds through the western portion of the quadrangle. A significant geographic division is marked by the Highlands Co Glades Co boundary line, which cuts across the lower third of the map. This era of mapping shows the region's sparse settlement and heavy reliance on the rail line for connectivity, with much of the interior remaining as open wetland and undeveloped scrub typical of the interior citrus and ranching country.
