1960 Map of Atmore

About this map

Atmore State Prison Farm and the extensive rail infrastructure of the Louisville and Nashville railroad anchor this 1960 landscape along the Alabama-Florida border. The city of Atmore is depicted in detail, showing a developed grid of streets including the Armory, Hospital, and several schools like the Rachel-Patterson Sch and the County High Sch. The map reveals a transition from the urban core to rural communities such as Canoe, Robinsonville, and Malta, where the economy appears tied to both the railroad and local Gravel Pits.
