The view looks across the town and surrounding landscape, showing dirt roads lined with pine trees, scattered homesteads, orange groves, and the distinctive chain of lakes that defined early Orlando's character.
Notable landmarks shown on the map include Sinclair's Real Estate Agency, Residence of N.L. Mills, New County Jail, County Court House, Opera House, Masonic Hall, South Florida Seminary, Charleston House, Magnolia House, Summerlin House, South Florida Railroad Depot, Planing Mill, Sash, Door and Blind Manufactory, Carriage and Wagon Manufactories, Ice Manufactory, Furniture Manufactory, Machine Shop, Residence of W.J.
