USGS Topo · Published 1937About this map
The Virginia Polytechnic Institute stands as a focal point in the northern reach of this 1930s survey, anchoring the growing community of Blacksburg. To the south, the major rail junction at Christiansburg and the nearby Industrial School mark the intersection of education and industry in Montgomery County. This era shows the landscape shaped by both the Norfolk and Western and Virginia Railway, which carve paths through the ridges of Price Mountain and Brush Mtn.
