The Palm Beach Co Broward Co boundary serves as the primary latitudinal axis for this 1946 survey, capturing a landscape of South Florida in transition before the arrival of modern suburban sprawl. The Hillsboro Canal cuts a prominent diagonal across the northern reach, illustrating the early drainage efforts that reshaped the Everglades into usable land. Near the eastern margin, Deerfield Beach begins its expansion along the Seaboard Air Line railroad, while the interior remains a patchwork of undeveloped wetlands and nascent agricultural grids.
