About this map

Industrial infrastructure and coastal lowlands define this 1980s landscape at the intersection of Columbus, Brunswick, and Pender Counties. Along the Cape Fear River, the area around Riegelwood and Acme features a concentration of heavy industry, including Industrial Waste Ponds, a Filtration Plant, and Sewage Disposal facilities. The Seaboard System Railroad serves as a primary transit corridor, connecting these riverside settlements with inland communities like Delco and Maco. To the south, the terrain transitions into the dense wetlands of the Little Green Swamp and Buckhorn Savanna, interrupted by family-named landmarks such as Chinnis Branch and Terrapin Branch. This era shows a community anchored by numerous rural congregations, including Bethel Church and Spring Green Church, alongside local education at the Acme-Delco School.
