About this map

Fort Macon stands at the eastern tip of Bogue Banks, guarding the Beaufort Inlet as it did during the mid-20th century. This coastal landscape is defined by the twin hubs of Morehead City and Beaufort, linked by the Atlantic and East Carolina railroad crossing the Newport River. The map captures a maritime economy in transition, featuring the Port Terminal and the US Marine Biological Sta on Pivers Island.
