1961 Map of Bartlett
USGS Topo · Published 1961About this map
Memphis expands eastward toward Bartlett and Germantown in this early 1960s survey, showing the post-war transition of Shelby County from rural farmsteads to suburban infrastructure. The landscape is defined by the winding course of the Wolf River and Nonconnah Creek, which frame the major transportation corridors of Summer Ave and Poplar Ave. Significant institutional footprints include the sprawling Memphis General Depot and the Penal Farm, contrasting with established academic centers like Southwestern University and Siena College.
