Where: Florida · approx. 28.8, -81.27 (vicinity only)
Why this spot: 1880s+ Sanborn-mapped town on Lake Monroe on the upper St. Johns River; head of steamboat navigation
What turns up: Gateway City and steamboat terminus. Expect steamboat-landing bottle dumps, citrus-era Hutchinson sodas, and coins in the old wharf and warehouse district on the Lake Monroe waterfront.
Access: Gray area.
Florida framing: the bed of Lake Monroe and the St. Johns is state-owned sovereignty submerged land below the ordinary high-water line where removing historic artifacts is restricted, and Florida law strongly protects archaeological and historical resources on state land. Lakefront uplands are usually private and need the landowner's permission. State law protects unmarked burials.
