1977 Map of Albemarle SE

USGS Topo · Published 1979

About this map

Pee Dee River and Lake Tillery define this landscape along the border of Montgomery County in the late 1970s. This orthophotoquad captures the transition from the ancient elevations of the Uwharrie Mts and Morrow Mtn down to the water’s edge. The imagery reveals the development patterns typical of this era, with residential concentrations appearing at River Haven and the settlement of Pee Dee. Unlike a traditional topographic map, this photographic survey provides a literal view of the forest cover and cleared land surrounding the reservoir, showing the exact footprint of shoreline properties and rural farmsteads as they existed during the March 1977 aerial survey. Local roads and highways, including routes 24 27 and 73, provide the primary framework for the scattered settlements in this river valley region.
