1960 Map of Bean Station
USGS Topo · Published 1977About this map
The Dixie Highway and Lee Highway intersect at Bean Station, a historic transportation hub where the Southern railroad once paralleled the base of Poor Valley Ridge. This 1960s landscape shows the profound impact of the Tennessee Valley Authority's work, with the waters of Cherokee Lake and the Holston River flooding the valleys surrounding Richland Ridge and Boatman Mountain. The map details the transition from rural valley farming to a recreation-oriented economy, evident in the German Creek Cabin Area, German Creek Dock, and a golf course near the historic Tate Springs area.
