Plat Book Volume 1

These official plat books from 1958 mapped out the future of Martin County as Stuart and its surrounding communities experienced rapid growth during the post-war boom. By recording property divisions, lot lines, and development plans across multiple volumes, these documents guided the transformation of rural farmland and natural areas into residential neighborhoods and commercial districts.
