About this map

The Neuse River dominates this mid-1970s landscape, weaving past low-lying marshlands and industrial sites near the New Bern boundary. The map illustrates a transitional period for the riverfront, where public spaces like Glenburnie Park and the Wildlife Landing sit alongside industrial waste ponds and a large quarry. Settlement patterns are concentrated along the rail lines and major crossings, with the Norfolk Southern corridor anchoring small communities such as Askin, Forest, and Dickerson.
