1900 Map of Anniston

About this map

Anniston serves as the industrial and transportation anchor of this late 19th-century survey, where the Southern and Louisville and Nashville railroads converge. The landscape is defined by the massive ridge of Choccolocco Mountain, which separates the urban center from the more rural valleys to the east. Throughout the countryside, small industrial nodes like Whitesides Mill and Bensons Mill are situated along the watercourses, including Choccolocco Creek and the Tallapoosa River.
