1997 Map of Albany West

USGS Topo · Published 2001

About this map

The Flint River carves a deep path through the center of this Georgia landscape, serving as the eastern boundary for the core of Albany. By the late 1990s, the city's western expansion reached the Albany Dougherty County Airport, while the urban grid remained anchored by institutional landmarks such as Albany State College and the Hazard Training Sch. The terrain is marked by significant hydrological features including the northern Lake Chehaw and the southern Radium Springs, which highlight the region's reliance on both river and subterranean water sources. Along the riverbanks, distinct topographical features like the Fossil Sand Dunes and Viola Bend contrast with the dense network of schools and cemeteries. This era shows a mature municipal structure, with numerous neighborhood schools like Monroe High Sch and Highland Sch serving a growing population that pushed outward toward the State Nursery and Herty.
