About this map

Bessemer City anchors this 2002 snapshot of the Gaston County landscape, where the urban grid of the city meets an intensive industrial and mining corridor. Large Tailings Ponds and active Mines dominate the central terrain, signaling the area's deep ties to mineral extraction between Vantine and Sunnyside. The map details the transition from these heavy industry sites to established residential neighborhoods, featuring a concentrated municipal center with the City Hall, Library, and Bessemer City High Sch.
