1960 Map of Anderson North

About this map

Anderson and Alexandria anchor this detailed 1960 landscape, showing the suburban expansion and rural continuity of Madison County. The northern outskirts of the city are defined by industrial and community landmarks like the U S Naval Reserve Training Center and Shady Side Park, while the surrounding townships of Monroe, Lafayette, and Richland remain largely agricultural. Small unincorporated communities like Prosperity and Florida sit along a network of country roads and drainage runs, including Lucky Run and Andy Run.
