About this map

Asheville stands as the central hub in this survey conducted before the turn of the century, situated at the confluence of the French Broad River and Swannanoa River. The Southern Railway follows the tight corridor of the French Broad, threading through riverfront settlements like Marshall, Alexander, and Stackhouse. This transport network was vital for the region's early industry and tourism, particularly for the resort town of Hot Springs near the Tennessee border.
