1971 Map of West Of Delta

About this map

The J W Corbett Wildlife Management Area dominates the northern reaches of this Florida-Palm Beach Co. orthophotomap, revealing the intricate patterns of wetlands and ponds that define the region. Adjacent to these conservation lands, the South Florida Youth Conservation Camp and its associated Sewage Disposal facility sit near the eastern edge of the management area. Southward, the landscape shifts abruptly into a rigid grid of agricultural or drainage parcels, a stark contrast to the natural topography of the Slough and Canal systems. This 1971 topographical survey, updated with 1980 aerial photography, provides a detailed view of water management and land use, featuring a localized Landing Strip, various Pit excavations, and a Pump station along the township lines. The transit corridor of Seminole Road serves as a primary artery through this reclaimed terrain.
