1949 Map of West Dixie Bend

USGS Topo · Published 1949

About this map

West Dixie Bend and the developing outskirts of Deerfield Beach define the landscape of northern Broward County in the late 1940s. This survey illustrates a pivotal era in Florida's water management and land expansion, dominated by the prominent Hillsboro Canal which cuts diagonally across the terrain, accompanied by a system of levees. The interior remains largely defined by marshy wetlands and numerous Borrow Pits, reflecting the intensive earth-moving required for road and railway construction in this low-lying region.
