2018 Map of West of Delta

About this map

The Acreage and the developing community of Westlake represent a distinct pattern of residential growth in the Florida Everglades. This landscape is defined by its rectilinear grid of citrus-named thoroughfares, such as Citrus Grove Blvd, Key Lime Blvd, and Tangerine Blvd. These roads reflect the agricultural heritage and planned development of Palm Beach County, where large lot sizes and drainage networks predominate. To the north and east, the transition into Palm Beach Gardens is marked by the Hungryland Slough Canal and various water management features like the M Canal. The map also shows older routes like Stumpers Grade Rd and Windmill Rd, which contrast with the modern boulevard system. This 2018 survey captures a moment of rapid suburban expansion as former agricultural lands are integrated into the modern infrastructure of the metropolitan area.
