The French Broad River and the Swannanoa River converge at the heart of this Buncombe County landscape, shaping the development of Asheville and its surrounding neighborhoods. Established residential areas like Richmond Hill and Kenilworth appear alongside the expansive grounds of the Univ of N Carolina at Asheville and the industrial corridors served by the Southern Ry. To the south, the planned community of Biltmore Forest and the Biltmore estate area are visible, while the Blue Ridge Parkway winds through the southern ridges near Stradley Mtn.
