1968 Map of Athens
USGS Topo · Published 1971About this map
Concord College serves as a prominent landmark in the town of Athens, situated on the eastern heights above the winding Bluestone River. This late-1960s landscape is defined by its ridge-and-valley structure, where settlements like Speedway and Gardner are connected by the historic corridor of the Virginia Toll Road. The area demonstrates a transition from the academic and residential character of the college town to the industrial and transit-focused southern zone near Princeton, where the Norfolk and Western railroad follows the path of Brush Creek.
